FOUNDER SPOTLIGHT
My name is Hosea Moore DeMarzino and I was born and raised in Newark, NJ. Growing up I had a hard time dealing with confidence issues, bullying, and weight problems. I never played sports because I thought I couldn’t contribute to the team. Over the years I realized that my weight was a significant factor in all the other problems and was something that was holding me back. After my first 2 years in Culinary School my life drastically changed; I joined the fraternal organization Groove Phi Groove Social Fellowship Incorporated, gained hundreds of friends, and developed many communication, organizing, and leadership skills.
As I grew closer to choosing my major I realized that my life thus far had charted the course to what I wanted to be my future endeavors. I decided to apply to the nutrition program and create a lifelong career transforming youth & adults physically, mentally and emotionally to create better childhoods and better futures. With that mission established I began a relentless journey to better my health through fitness and combine that knowledge with nutrition.
Over the next 1 1/ 2 years I went from 233lbs to 193lbs losing 40lbs and gaining vital insight not only into the fitness atmosphere and what it could offer me but what I could offer it. Currently I have a Bachelor's of Science in Culinary Nutrition, an Associates of Science in Culinary Arts from Johnson & Wales University, and I am an ACSM Certified Personal Trainer as well as a certified Les Mills International BodyVive Instructor. I am also working toward writing my own book and adding more certifications to my resume.
