Your Certified Coach

Running Background

I have been passionate about running for over 25 years, both as a competitor and a coach. I am a veteran of World Marathon Majors with numerous Boston Marathon qualifications. Boston is my favorite race, and I’ve been fortunate to run it many times with sub-3 hr performances.

My running journey has also included serving as the Dallas Athlete Ambassador at the Sendai International Half Marathon in Japan, where I represented Dallas as an Athlete Ambassador

Coaching Experience

I am an RRCA Level 1 Certified Coach with experience coaching athletes at every level — from:

– Couch-to-5K beginners – building fitness and confidence step by step

– General aerobic fitness – helping individuals improve cardiovascular health, endurance, and overall well-being through structured, sustainable training

– Hyrox competitors – combining functional strength and endurance training to prepare athletes for the unique demands of hybrid racing

– Boston Marathon qualifiers – refining training with advanced strategies

My approach is highly individualized, tailoring plans to each runner’s or hybrid athlete’s lifestyle, fitness level, and goals.

Coaching Philosophy

I believe in combining science-based training with a positive, flexible approach. My coaching philosophy is built on:

🧠 Scientific, evidence-based principles – using proven methods to guide training
🤝 Collaboration & adaptability – whether an athlete thrives in a community environment or prefers a more individualized path, I support them in the way that works best
🙂 Fun & enjoyment – keeping running sustainable and joyful
🩺 Health & injury prevention – training smart, emphasizing strength training and smart load management to reduce setbacks
🌟 Balance & longevity – building fitness while supporting long-term well-being and growth

Personal Life

Outside of running, I enjoy cooking, spending time outdoors with my family, being a dad, and a husband. Professionally, I practice as an Emergency Medicine physician.
