Johnny is a lifelong athlete with a go-getters attitude. He grew up from a very young age with a focus and passion for team sports.

He transitioned to a triathlon career after high school when his team sport endeavors faded and his motivation started to decline. At first, triathlon was a way for Johnny to maintain his health and stay social. 6 years later, he has just finished up his 2nd full season of racing as a Professional Triathlete.
