I have a competitive swimming background and have been racing all distances of Duathlons and Triathlons since 2004. I have a passion for training and mentoring all types of racers.

As a family man and Naval Officer that has competed in and completed 3 Ironman’s and dozens of smaller races, I understand the challenges that come with managing a family, work and training schedule that can push you to the breaking point. My experiences can help you achieve that work/life balance to be able to put up your best race.

Formal athletic coaching experience for friends and family members pursuing athletic goals has been my passion. My greatest joy has been coaching my two sons, and their sports teammates, in a variety of sports including Triathlon up to Ironman where they both competed in and finished IM Maryland in 2017.

I have been a coach and mentor to hundreds of Naval Officers and Enlisted sailors over the years in all facets of physical fitness, aviation, shipboard life and time management with a hectic lifestyle. This endeavor has provided me with the leadership skills, passion, patience, drive and work ethic required to coach an athlete looking to complete their first event or PR and compete at a higher level.
