  • Athletic Development & Performance Coaching

    From in-person coaching to on-demand workouts, I approach all my client programming through the multi-faceted lens of athletic training, strength & conditioning, and mental skills coaching. Whether you are trying to get that last 10% back after an injury, or looking to level up performance in your chosen sport, I’m ready to create a thoughtful, individualized, and robust program to address your goals and needs.

  • Consulting

    Are you interested in adding Athletic Training Services to your business, but not sure how to approach hiring and responsibilities? Maybe you already employ Athletic Trainers, but want to improve recruitment, utilization, retention, and professional satisfaction. Either way, I’m here to help your business build out the Athletic Training department that best serves your athletes, patients, clients, and employees.

  • Workshops & Speaking Engagements

    I’m available for workshops, lectures and keynotes for both athletes and Athletic Training colleagues.

    With a variety of options to meet the unique needs of your team, staff, or conference, I’d love to work with you to make the best selection - or to design something new together!

  • Athletic Training Services

    There is nothing I love more than being able to help my AT colleagues!

    While I don’t often do PRN work due to other commitments, if you are seeking Athletic Training support for a particular team or situation, please reach out. A seasonal, part-time contract may be exactly the thing that fits both your needs and your budget.

I’d love to work with you.

My mission is simple - I want athletes, patients, and clients everywhere to have access to the incredible power of the biopsychosocial model of care that research tells us gets the best results in both sports rehab and sports performance, and that Athletic Trainers are uniquely qualified to deliver.

While I love working with individual athletes, patients, and clients, it is equally important for me to support my Athletic Training colleagues through education and advocacy - athlete health and safety depends on the strength and advancement of our profession!

If our goals align, I’d love to work with you or your team!
