Specialization as a coach
Specialize in transition from road to trail/ultra. I love coaching athletes with a strong drive to test their own limits. I have found working on tapping into the mental component is key in many athletes.
College

How did you start running?
I was an all-American steeplechase runner in college which launched me into a professional track career. Eventually, I became burnt out and needed to find my joy and passion again with running, training, and racing too I turned to the dark side of trail and ultra running and am HOOKED.
