Specialization as an athlete

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

Specialization as a coach

High school XC and mid-distance coach with over 10 years of experience preparing individuals for fitness tests and events of all kinds. I specialize in blending speed and strength to meet the demands of high-school mid-distance/XC, LEO, military personnel, or anyone interested in going farther faster! 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.

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.
