Mike Hamilton

My name is Mike Hamilton, and I'm a wannabe Coeur d'Alene native, having grown up just 20 minutes down the road in Liberty Lake, WA. Growing up, I helped at my family’s health food store, Pilgrim’s Market, and my love for the store and our local community has only grown stronger over the years. These days, I help run the marketing team at the store while creating a fun, engaging cooking tutorial video once a week for our social media. Check them out on Pilgrim’s Market’s Instagram or Facebook!

I attended Chapman University in Southern California, where I earned my bachelor’s in business administration/finance. I went in with plans to play both soccer and tennis for the school but instead chose the more fun and fulfilling route of beer league sports—where hydration was very important. After graduation, I came back home, got my real estate license, and have been buying and selling homes for close family and clients ever since.

My wife and I recently opened a boutique bio-hacking gym called NextGym right here in Coeur d'Alene. My wife is a scratch golfer with TPI certifications (among other personal training credentials), and she specializes in strength, mobility, and balance for golfers. Our gym features cutting-edge fitness equipment that helps you hit your goals in a fraction of the time. We’ve had a blast opening the business and learned a ton along the way!

I’m truly honored to be part of such a great cause with Coeur54, and I look forward to helping shine a light on the incredible organizations this group supports for years to come. I’ve never played 54 holes in a day before, but I’m confident I can string together at least 15 good ones.
