I discovered the sport of weightlifting in 2012 and four years later found myself on the Olympic stage in 2016 in Rio De Janeiro representing Team USA, after many years of dedication of being an athlete.

I have harnessed my extensive background as a lifelong multi-sport athlete, encompassing soccer, endurance running, triathlons, and CrossFit competitions, to guide my journey to the Olympic stage.

My inquisitive nature and diverse athletic background prompted me to explore alternative avenues for optimizing potential beyond the competition platform. This exploration has led me to delve into the science of mindfulness, breathwork, and yoga, recognizing their profound impact on mental and physical well-being.

Currently, I am furthering my education in the field of somatic psychology through a licensed graduate program, a pursuit that reflects my commitment to continuous learning and giving back to the field that has enriched my own journey.

The benefit of integrating multiple systems are wildly understood but less spoken about how to utilize them to the best of your ability because well… life happens. As a coach I believe it’s important to continue to build upon how our own individual bodies work in a system to enhance the connection between mind and body. It is my goal to help you build a powerful set of skills to train, compete and effectively navigate the ups and downs of life in and out of sport.

I firmly believe that every athlete possesses unique learning skills crucial for success in their respective sports. As a coach, my goal is to adopt an athlete-centered approach by facilitating the creation of a personalized language that resonates with them. Through the provision of tailored tools and techniques, I aim to empower athletes to enhance their performance and effectively navigate the intricacies of both competitive endeavors and the transitions inherent in elite sports careers.

Let’s be great,
