Specialization as an athlete

Road running and cross-country!  I personally enjoy the 10k – half marathon but exploring other events are fun as well!

Specialization as a coach

With over 10 years of experience preparing individuals for tactical fitness tests and events, I specialize in blending strength and speed to meet the demands of LEO, military personnel, or anyone interested in that style of training. While I have a strong passion for the 10k-half marathon, my coaching philosophy is rooted in supporting athletes of all ages, abilities, and event focuses. Your journey is what matters most—and helping you reach your goals is truly what drives me.

Certifications

How did you start running?

I grew up around the track as my father was a coach, and while I originally sprinted in school I have taken to longer distances since then.  For me, running is deeply ingrained in who I am and a passion I want to share and explore with others.
