Dennis grew up in Dayton, KY and graduated with a B.S. in chemistry from Northern Kentucky University in 2010. He then went on to get his Ph.D. in chemistry from the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill in 2014, where he is now a Professor of Chemistry at Tusculum University.
His active living journey started after high school sports when he became significantly overweight. Through many ups and downs, he was able to change his lifestyle, and make being active a part of his everyday life. He strives to be active every day, and now enjoys many hobbies including weight training, kayaking, and mountain biking. However, he understands how hard that journey was, and he wants to help others achieve their fitness goals like he has been able to. That is why he decided to start FytFeed and is dedicate to its vision and mission.
