My background / My philosophy
Understand how you move. Develop from there.
Every athlete brings their own body, sport, and goals to training. I start by understanding the person—not by asking everyone to follow the same plan.
A coaching principle
Purposeful development, at the athlete’s pace.
01 / Where I started
My background is rooted in high-level track and field, where speed, force production, movement efficiency, and technical precision are fundamental to performance.
I grew up being coached by a previous Olympic Jumps Coach, who taught me to appreciate the details that separate training from developing a lifelong athlete. Through my coaching experiences at the NCAA Division I level and at the Olympic Training Center, I have used that appreciation to understand each athlete’s own way of moving and help them shape it into the best version of themselves for their sport or event of choice.
02 / Who I work with
Over time, my work expanded from track and field to Olympic weightlifting, football, lacrosse, and other sports as athletes came looking for the same underlying qualities: untouchable speed, incredibly explosive power, Olympian-strong movements, and unmistakable overall athletic performance.
That is just a touch of the foundation of my coaching philosophy.
03 / How I think about development
I do not believe every athlete needs the same program, the same drills, or the same approach. I believe development starts with understanding the individual and their body, then seeing how we can approach their goals in a timely manner—without the stress of needing to be the best they can be tomorrow.
My goal
“My goal is to help athletes understand how they move and the whys behind their biomechanics. I want all of my athletes to understand why they train the way they do, and how purposeful development can support their performance in the sports they love.”
