BIOGRAPHY

I grew up just outside of Chicago and played every sport I could. Eventually I settled on the sport of Tennis while in high school. Unfortunately I struggled with injuries that hindered my playing career. It was because of these injuries that I pursued a degree in Exercise Science. I wanted to learn the skills to help athletes stay injury free and keep them on the playing field. After completing my Bachelor's I obtained a Master's degree in Applied Exercise Science focused on Sports Performance. I have worked with athletes of all levels including professional, collegiate, and youth. All of my experiences have shown me that being an effective coach takes more that just programming exercises. An effective coach is humble, builds relationships, and serves as a resource to help athletes achieve their full potential.
