I’m a professional who helps people run faster, lift heavier, and look and feel their best. But I didn’t start out with all the answers.

Back in high school in the early 2010s, I was searching for fitness answers and finding nothing but confusion. I’d spend hours scrolling through Bodybuilding.com and Livestrong.com, trying to figure it all out. “How do I get six-pack abs? How do I sprint faster in the 400m? What is creatine? What is beta-alanine?” Every question had different, anecdotal answers, and none of them agreed.

That frustration pushed me to get my B.S. in Exercise Science. I became a CPT CSCS, USATF Marathon Specialist and Level 1 Coaching Certification. Now with collegiate and pro experience, and seven years of real experience coaching and training (and not to mention continuing education), I finally have some answers to those questions I once dreamed of answering.
