“My determination is unparalleled to any coach you will work with. I aspire to push clients past their own mental barriers and prove that each athlete is capable of more than they believe, not just as athletes, but outside of the gym too. I have particular interest in rotator cuff training due to my own injury, Vertical Jump training, Body Building, and other styles of lifting. I have trained athletes as young as 7 years old, as old as D1-commit, and have 2.5 years of adult fitness training under my belt. I have the ever-expanding knowledge and experience to train any athlete to their peak; all I require is the effort it takes to get there.”
