With 25 years as a professional multisport athlete, I’ve trained and raced around the world alongside top athletes and coaches. The ups and downs of my career led me to focus on science-based training and ultimately into coaching. I’m passionate about helping every athlete find balance, stay motivated, and reach their potential.

Sport has shaped my life, and endurance training has become my passion. As an NCCP Certified Triathlon Coach, I create individualized, holistic programs that balance performance with lifestyle, built on trust and honest communication. I’m active in the triathlon community, a former national-level swimmer, and an athlete across many distances—including multiple Ironmans. I coach because I love the lifestyle and the people who make this sport so inspiring.

Testimonials

NRG coaching helped me achieve results I never expected. As a midlife newbie to trisport with only one year of racing experience, I was seeking structure and feedback to make the most of the limited training time available to me in balancing family, career and fitness...what I got was so much more. Professional advice, genuine interest in my progress, team camaraderie, and best of all...RESULTS!

I went from a runner, new to triathlons, to a 3 time Ironman, this only happened with the expert training I recieved from NRG. During many of my races, it was great to have NRG coaches offering support and cheering me on. While at the NRG camp, the coaching staff did a wonderful job, of supporting,teaching and encouraging us as we experienced the race course in Mont Tremblant

I wanted to say THANK YOU. The past year with you has been amazing. The attention to my program and genuine commitment to my success shows in everything that you do. I am as excited as a little kid being able to work out with you and your NRG team. The team are not only amazing athletes but willing to share their experience and knowledge with newcomers like myself.

Train. Eat. Sleep. Repeat.
