I reside in the Boulder-area of Colorado and my primary profession is coaching endurance athletes. I've been coaching since 2006, full-time since 2013. I have a stable of triathletes, cyclists, and runners, along with the USNA Team (since 2008). The athletes I work with have earned 60+ USAT All-American honors, and several neophytes to elites and two collegiate Nationals champs. I've successfully coached road and CX cyclists up to Cat 2. The runners include a high school All-American and an Olympic trials marathoner.

I personally started competing as a youth in National Junior Olympics for cross country and track. I ran through high school and college. I commissioned into the Marine Corps in 2000, becoming an Infantry Officer and eventually served in Operation Iraqi Freedom during the invasion in 2003. While a Marine, I competed in triathlon and running for the Marines and All-Armed Forces teams to include 2 world military championships. I left the Marines in 2006 and spent 6 years racing as a pro/elite triathlete. I am an Ultraman Champion and completed Ultraman Hawaii. On bikes, I was a RAAM team record holder and competed at a high level in ultra-cycling finishing Paris-Brest-Paris and winning THE508. I currently enjoy Swimrun events being a top-level masters runner and triathlete.

I am USAT Level 2 and Elite Youth and Junior Certified and USAC Level 2. Although, I do not think certifications are important, they do put me in good standing with our NGBs.
