My training is built around four key areas: fundamentals, technique, mentality, and performance training. I help athletes develop proper mechanics, improve speed, power, and explosiveness, build confidence under pressure, and develop the mindset needed to compete at their best. Every session is tailored to the athlete's goals and skill level, whether they're just getting started, looking to earn a spot on their school team, or striving to achieve new personal records. My goal is to help every athlete become a more confident, disciplined, and well-rounded competitor, both on and off the track.

Typical Training Session

Every lesson is personalized to the athlete's age, experience level, and goals, but a typical session follows this structure:

1. Dynamic Warm-Up (10–15 minutes)

Dynamic stretching and mobility exercises

Sprint drills and movement preparation

Activation exercises to reduce injury risk and prepare for training

2. Fundamentals & Technique (20–25 minutes)

Event-specific instruction (high jump, hurdles, sprints, jumps, etc.)

Proper body mechanics and form

Footwork, posture, rhythm, and technical corrections

Video analysis and feedback when appropriate

3. Performance Training (15–20 minutes)

Speed and acceleration development

Plyometrics and explosive power exercises

Agility, coordination, and balance drills

Strength and conditioning tailored to the athlete

4. Mental Performance (5–10 minutes)

Goal setting and performance mindset

Confidence-building techniques

Race and competition strategy

Learning how to handle pressure and stay focused

5. Cool Down & Recovery (5–10 minutes)

Light jogging or walking

Static stretching to improve flexibility and recovery

Review of key takeaways from the session

Discussion of at-home drills or training recommendations before the next lesson

My goal is for every athlete to leave each session more technically sound, physically prepared, mentally confident, and excited to continue improving.

The best coach I've ever had was my freshman running backs coach. What made him so special wasn't just his knowledge of the game, it was the way he believed in me before I fully believed in myself. No matter how I performed in practice or during a game, he always found a way to build my confidence. He knew exactly what to say when I needed encouragement, and he never let a mistake define me.

What I appreciated most was that he coached with me, not at me. He listened, asked questions, and worked collaboratively to help me improve instead of simply telling me what I was doing wrong. He created an environment where I wasn't afraid to make mistakes because I knew they were opportunities to learn and grow. That support gave me the confidence to play faster, trust my instincts, and become a better athlete.

His influence has stayed with me throughout my own athletic career and into my years as a coach. Today, I strive to be that same kind of coach for my athletes, someone who teaches fundamentals and technique while also building confidence, encouraging open communication, and helping each athlete believe in themselves. I want every athlete I coach to leave a session feeling more capable than when they arrived, just as I did after every conversation with him.

As a coach, I'm direct, honest, encouraging, and detail-oriented. I believe athletes improve the fastest when they receive clear, constructive feedback in a positive and supportive environment. I'll always be honest about where an athlete is today, but I'll also provide a plan to help them reach where they want to be.

I genuinely enjoy teaching and take pride in breaking down techniques into simple, easy-to-understand steps that athletes can apply immediately. Whether we're refining fundamentals, improving event-specific technique, building mental toughness, or increasing overall athletic performance, my goal is to help every athlete become more confident, more disciplined, and better prepared to succeed both in competition and in life.
