Coach Mastermind Group
TriDot Pool SchoolAbout
I grew up in Northern Minnesota and played hockey, basketball, and rugby. I currently serve in the US Air Force and completed three tours in the Middle East. I honed my confidence and love of coaching through powerlifting and triathlon. My mission is to help others cultivate strength and resilience inside and out, working towards a total lifestyle change that aligns with their goals.
Philosophy
I believe in the power of authenticity and honesty. I love empowering others to find their true potential, and I can call out blindspots or talk and work with struggling clients. I am more skilled at helping beginners and the back of the packers, and that is where I feel the most rewarded as a coach. I also believe in active listening and working together to help my clients feel confident and capable of tackling anything life throws their way. I love introducing people to the sport of triathlon and seeing their skills and confidence develop over time. One of my role models is Mike Reilly, the voice of IRONMAN, because of his ability to inspire many with his encouraging words and actions. My coaching philosophy is about helping people achieve things they never thought possible.
