My name is Al Castaldo, I was born and raised in Las Vegas, NV. Attended the wonderful University of Nevada Reno where I received my Bachelors of Science in Marketing in December 2012. I am now in the process of receiving my Masters in Business Administration with graduation right around the corner in December 2014. Dedication, a word that has been in my head since day one. I am all about fitness, CrossFit is a new thing to me and I couldn’t be any happier. It teaches you how important teamwork and community really are. I will never give up on something I started and that’s why I have shaped into the hard-working man I am today. Won’t stop until my dreams become reality.
