What I'm looking for

I seek a role that allows me to inspire athletes and foster their growth.

I am a dedicated strength and conditioning coach with a strong background in athletics and a passion for helping individuals achieve their fitness goals. My journey began as a NCAA Division I student-athlete, where I learned the importance of discipline, teamwork, and perseverance. These experiences have shaped my professional ethos, driving me to inspire others to overcome obstacles and reach their full potential.

Throughout my career, I have successfully designed and implemented training programs for diverse groups, including sports teams and individual athletes of all ages. My roles at D1 Training and Redline Athletics have allowed me to lead teams, manage performance staff, and facilitate educational meetings to keep abreast of the latest industry research. I pride myself on being detail-oriented and organized, ensuring that I provide the best possible training experience for my clients while fostering an environment of growth and success.
