My journey into triathlon started through mud runs—I was looking for a bigger challenge and quickly became hooked. That was six years ago, and since then, triathlon has become a major part of my life. What drew me in wasn’t just the sport itself, but everything around it: the goal-setting, the science behind performance, the methods of training, and the constant balance between pushing limits and staying healthy. I’m deeply curious and always looking to learn and grow, both as an athlete and as a coach.

Coaching came naturally. I loved being part of the TFDT group and seeing athletes hit their goals—sometimes even transforming their lives in the process. That experience inspired me to help others do the same. Triathlon has taught me a lot too: time management, efficiency, and how to channel energy with purpose.

As a coach, my goal is to make a meaningful impact. I believe that through consistency, fun, and balance, athletes can reach their full potential—both in sport and in life.
