ABOUT

My expertise is in human movement, performance, and orthopedic rehabilitation. Specifically - I work with runners and provide an end-to-end solution to reach their unique goals on both team and individual levels.

​I coach, consult, rehabilitate, and guide. My approach is a blend of experience and continued athletic pursuits, in addition to the latest evidenced-based approaches.

Philosophy:

Care and guidance make the backbone of my approach. My role is to listen to your story, understand your needs, beliefs, and goals, and then guide you through a plan that will help get you there. 

I lean into the biopsychosocial framework of orthopedic rehabilitation, which means that I treat the individual, rather than simply an injury.
​

Pillars of Health:

I'm also passionate about human performance, and it's clear to me that a human cannot perform optimally - physically or mentally - without the right health framework in place.

The Pillars of Health is an operational framework adopted from the Institute of Functional Medicine. It is an individualized, client-centered, science-based approach that empowers clients and coaches to work together and address underlying health concerns and promote optimal wellness.

I'm an expert in the Physical Health domain of this framework, and rely on a network of experts to provide clients guidance in the other four domains of: 
  • Sleep Health
  • Mental Health
  • Nutrition
