My Story

I have been an athlete since I was 4 years old in Tee Ball. I started playing sports year round when I started tackle football at 7. I continued like this all the way through High School, where as a senior I helped lead our baseball team to it's first District Championship in 33 years. 

Sport has always been my comfort zone, because growing up I had trouble making friends. I experienced first hand how having a Coach guide you through challenges can completely change the way you view life. No matter the problems I had off the field, I knew I could rely on my coach to show me the best way to perform. This impacted me so greatly I decided to dedicate my life to coaching others. It has been overwhelmingly fulfilling watching my athletes and teams push through struggle and achieve their dreams. 

I approach each new client with this mindset: I am the part of their life where they can learn and grow, and this growth often leads to new and exciting opportunities they didn't think possible before. I wake up each day excited to see the new horizons available to my clients. 

This passion led me to join the Exercise Science program at the University of South Florida where I graduated in 2014. After my graduation I obtained my NSCA CSCS (National Strength and Conditioning Association: Certified Strength and Conditioning Specialist) and began working with Professional, Collegiate, High and Middle school athletes from all different backgrounds and skill levels.

I even opened my own Strength and Conditioning center while living abroad in Taiwan. This is where I had the opportunity to train the High School National Champion Tennis team for over 3 years. 

 

Sport Performance is my specialty, since I know how the body works and adapts to stressors, I can get you the results you desire. Be it Strength, Speed, Power, Agility, Quickness or Endurance, with me you can reach your potential. 

With this extensive knowledge and experience, I am able to shape a person that has no foundational exercise ability and transform them into a World Class athlete.

I also have a soft spot for those that are trying to improve their lives without any sport goals in mind. I remember the chubby kid I was in middle school and how exercise transformed the way I viewed life and how others viewed me. Watching others go through this transformation is a fuel that drives me each day.
