My focus is on helping people recognize what they are capable of, guiding them along the way, and encouraging and educating them through the process. I aspire to empower individuals with confidence through strength to become more. Through a process of relationship building, trial and error, communication, and mentorship, I tailor each client’s training, movement, and nutrition to help them become the best version of themselves.

I have a B.S. in Biology, with a minor in Nutrition and a M.S. in Exercise Science, with a concentration in strength and conditioning. I have over four years of collegiate strength and conditioning experience and over five years of experience coaching strength and physique athletes from beginners to world champions and focus on the relationship formed with each athlete. I have been powerlifting since 2011 and have competed in over a dozen competitions.

When not training or coaching, you can find me hiking, enjoying San Diego’s craft beer scene, working on and modifying my car, or just enjoying the best California has to offer.
