Lifestyle, Prevention, Performance - That is my tagline!  I help individuals, groups and teams to improve their lives through a focus on fitness.

How am I different form the rest of the fitness industry, here are a few striking differences:

• Education - A Master's degree in the field is a rare, yet necessary baseline for a professional that will serve you as a health and fitness consultant.
• Athletics - Aside from a being an elite outdoor athlete, I have coached diving, gymnastics and freestyle skiing. This background lends itself to a detailed understanding of the physiological demands of any sport.
• Delivery - After ten years of experience in the field and my fascination with technology, I have the ability to customize the way I share knowledge with you. I have a solution for you and your group, regardless of your location, facility or socioeconomic background.
