I am a USAT level 1 and Ironman certified coach. I am committed to helping motivated age group triathletes of all levels reach their goals. I have coached athletes at all distances with success, including Ironman distance. I am a 23 time full Ironman finisher, including qualifying for and racing multiple Ironman World Championships in Kona, 70.3 World Championships and Boston Marathons. I also work as a veterinarian.

In the process of developing as an athlete, I have become a student of the sport. I have studied the process of coaching, the science of program development, and the physiology of the sport. My medical background has been instrumental in this process.

I enjoy seeing other people work hard and achieve their goals. I enjoy the process involved in the journey, and celebrating the small daily achievements along the way. I believe that sport should be fully incorporated into life, enriching life, as lifestyle also supports sport. I enjoy developing a relationship with the people I coach, and I believe that a deep understanding of the athlete’s goals and drivers enables training to be focused, directed and enriching. I am fascinated with the psychology of sport, and how it affects the journey and the outcome.

I believe that the coach/athlete relationship is one of mutual communication, collaboration, and a sense of taking a journey together. I am committed to coaching motivated triathletes of all levels get faster and achieve their goals.
