Coach Bio

High-performance coach specializing in competitive and elite athlete development. I design integrated training systems grounded in power profiling, WKO analysis, and race-calendar architecture. With years as a DS in UCI Continental teams and founder of a US-registered team based in Spain, I understand performance from both strategic and operational perspectives. I optimize PPO, taper strategy, and long-term progression for serious cyclists seeking structure, accountability, and measurable gains.

I coach competitive cyclists who want more than generic training plans — they want structure, accountability, and intelligent progression.

I’ve managed performance within a UCI Continental development environment and founded a US team based in Spain, so I understand what it takes to prepare athletes for real race demands. I hold several postgraduate qualifications in sport science and have a strong applied background in performance nutrition, ensuring training and fueling strategies align with competitive goals.

My primary focus is durability and race analysis — building athletes who can sustain high outputs deep into competition and execute tactically when it matters most. Rather than chasing short-term peaks, I develop long-term plans aligned with your race calendar, physiological profile, and progression targets.

Coaching includes:

  • Structured, individualized training
  • Durability development and fatigue resistance
  • Race analysis and post-event breakdown
  • Evidence-based taper strategy
  • Ongoing performance review and feedback

If you're serious about becoming more resilient, race-ready, and consistently competitive, we’ll work well together.
