Adrian Williams was born in the New York City borough of the Bronx and has spent his life wanting to help people. He had dreams of becoming a pediatric nurse when his father was diagnosed with cancer. He took time to take care of his family as his dad lived out his last days with Hospice care, according to Shondaland.com.
He said, "I had gone through this journey of taking care of my family, doing odd jobs. When he finally passed away, it was a chance for me to say: What do I want to do with myself? What do I want to do with my life? Because I could start focusing on myself. One of my friends said, 'I think you should go into fitness. It's something that aligns with what you wanted to do originally, which was the work in pediatrics as a nurse, and help people, and you're an amazing athlete. I think this is going to be the thing for you.'"
And it was. Williams soon packed up his bags and made the move to the West Coast where he began amassing personal training clients.
