Nickname: Suave
“I’m a father of 3 great kids and always pushing for them to be the best versions of themselves. I like motivating others to do better and help others, trying to stay active. Love working hard to get to my goals in life.”
RJ is one of those rare humans who seems to have cracked the code on bending time. While the rest of us are fumbling with snooze buttons, RJ has already crushed a workout, organized his day, solved three global crises, and probably squeezed in a set of push-ups just for fun.
His drive is absolutely unmatched. This man treats fitness like a lifestyle, an art form, and possibly a competitive sport all by itself. He rocks a weighted vest around the office, ankle weights like they’re fashion accessories, and honestly he probably straps them on just to walk to the bathroom. If there’s a spare moment—ten seconds, five minutes, the length of a sneeze—RJ fits fitness into it. He’s the definition of super adaptable.
He wakes up at some ungodly hour—the kind of time that only bakers, astronauts, and people running from the police are awake—to get himself to the gym while the rest of the world is peacefully drooling on pillows.
Now, don’t let his height intimidate you—pretty sure he’s like 7’4” (give or take a foot). He might look like he could dunk on you without jumping, but he’s got a massive heart and cares deeply about every single person in the group. But RJ never lets his competitive fire overshadow his kindness—he’s always cheering, checking in, and making sure everyone’s doing great.
He’s also our resident artist, blessed with actual talent the rest of us pretend to have. His drawings keep the group laughing, and he’s the creative genius who designed the legendary Glizzy 5K image.
RJ successfully completed the One Million Step Challenge in 12/2025—single-handedly convincing his step counter it needed therapy and a firmware update. 🏃♂️😄
