He began weightlifting in 2006 in Dobele, Latvia. (Athlete, 23 Oct 2017)

He was inspired to take up the sport by Latvian weightlifter Viktors Scerbatis. "Viktors was very popular, everyone talked about him in our city. At that time he was at the zenith of his fame, constantly taking part in international competitions and winning medals. I do not know why, but I dreamed of meeting him in real life. I was impressed by his power and strength. My brother was the first in our family to do weightlifting. Once he took me to his training where I saw Viktors. After that I began weightlifting too."
