I founded Trail and Iron Performance to bridge the gap between two passions I once thought were in conflict: building physical strength and achieving exceptional endurance. After a decade of swinging between these pursuits, I decided to challenge the norm and pursue both simultaneously, creating a balanced approach to training.

With a master's degree in Applied Physiology and Kinesiology from the University of Florida, a bachelor's degree in Exercise Science from Pacific University, and certification as a Strength and Conditioning Coach (CSCS), I bring science-backed expertise to every training plan. Over the years, I’ve had the privilege of coaching hundreds of athletes—from middle school students to collegiate competitors and ultra-runners. My mission is to help others realize their full potential by combining strength and endurance into a harmonious pursuit of excellence.
