Trust me when I say that I know what it’s like to feel “stuck” or “broken.” I grew up in a town actually named Cement City, MI. Both of my parents abused alcohol and drugs. My dad died when I was seven. And I was born with Class 1 Cerebral Palsy, which created many physical restrictions I had to overcome. But also, my entire life, reading was a severe struggle.
Reading was so hard; I’d quickly fall asleep. Reading made me feel stupid and ashamed. No one knew how to fix my reading problem. They just kept saying that I didn’t read as well as I SHOULD. So I learned to hide my reading problem. I relied on audiobooks. I became a top athlete (a dancer). I grew up to be a Pilates rehab therapist, and by 21, I had a long waiting list of A-list athletes and celebrities. But I still couldn’t read well.
Then one day, I’m 33 years old, and I’m at a conference when I stop by a vision therapy booth that is giving free “visual coordination tests.” The test revealed I had a small “gap” in how my left and right eye “worked together,” and we did a few short exercises to close this visual gap. I left the booth thinking, “no big deal.”
But then, five minutes later…
My friend hands me a note from someone, and to my amazement, I can read it easily!
I used the rest of my time at the conference to practice and invent exercises that would get my eyes to better coordinate. On my flight home, I read my first entire book in one sitting, and in a matter of a few hours! That night, I told my wife that I was going to read the rest of the series. She said, “Who are you, and what have you done with my husband?”
That conference trip marked the end of my reading problem and the beginning of my dedication to “brain training.” Without knowing it, I’d already been helping people retrain their brain for a decade through my Pilates work. Now, I was on fire to take my passion for “problem-solving” to an entirely new level.
I spent the next decade of my life focused on inventing new ways for anyone to biohack their brain. Usually, brain training is expensive and clinical. I was on a mission to make it highly accessible and fun.
In 2015, I created the first version of BrainSpeed Ball to use in a brain training workshop I was leading. The BrainSpeed Ball was something I wish I would’ve had as a kid; a ball that was a form of vision therapy. It was my students who said, “You have to make and sell this ball!” And that’s how the BrainSpeed Ball came to be. One of the great joys of my life is witnessing tremendous and permanent changes in children, seniors, athletes, and those with neurological conditions.
Today, I teach proprietary techniques and strategies worldwide to help improve brain performance. I dedicate a lot of my time to help kids that struggle with homework and school, and their parents. My mission is to help strengthen how every kid’s brain works. When a kid’s brain works better, schoolwork gets easier, but most importantly, that young person shifts from feeling broken to brilliant.
I did fail first grade. But sometimes our problems bring us to our purpose.

I’m Riley and I’m no stranger to chronic illness. I’m a remote Naturopathic and Functional Practitioner that specializes in the gut. I consider myself a practitioner of the New Age. Root causes, innovative principles, and problem solving with functional labs are my game. Chronic illness and mysterious symptoms aren’t life sentences as long as you can find the right answers.
I got into this field due to my own health issues. I’ve suffered with chronic illness since birth. I’ve had chemical poisoning, childhood asthma, IBS, Gastritis, hiatal hernia, GERD & LPR, Dysbiosis, parasites, allergies, mold toxicity, MARCoNS, severe TMJD, skin issues, Interstitial Cystitis, hormonal imbalance, Lyme co-infections & other stealth microbes, chronic viruses, mood disorders, adrenal fatigue, Hypothyroidism, chronic fatigue, chronic pain, chronic headaches, and to top it off, Cervical Dystonia, which really affected my life negatively. I’ve experienced almost every weird symptom imaginable. Despite my many struggles, I finally valued the body as my teacher.
By learning holistic principles, I completely reversed most of my issues. The body is a work in progress, but I am dedicated to it. After many years, I finally learned that I truly love the body. With my body as my teacher, I’m here to guide others to find true wellness.

This is a lifestyle for me, and it can be for you too.
This self help book talks about how fasting can get you the body of your dreams, while sustaining a positive, and healthy mindset. I review different levels of fasting, biblical reasoning, failure of fad-diets, scientifically proven and modern nutrition, the best vitamins/supplements, workout programs, and controlling your own mental and emotional well-being.
Through personal anecdotes and a multitude of scientific studies, I invite you all to learn to become the best, healthiest, and strongest that you can possibly be!
