Biography
I am an NSCA Registered Strength and Conditioning Coach (RSCC) and a Certified Strength and Conditioning Specialist (CSCS). I received my certifications following the completion of my undergraduate degree in 2015, specializing in kinesiology and sports performance. During my time at the University of Alberta, I had the privilege of working with the women's hockey team as their student therapist. My involvement with sport at the university level helped me realize my passion for working with athletes.
Throughout my years as a Strength and Conditioning Coach, I’ve been lucky enough to have worked with athletes from over a dozen different sports, ranging from grassroots to professional levels. My training philosophy revolves around proper mobility and foundational movement patterns, no matter the level of sport or age of an athlete. In order to maximize performance effectively and efficiently, you can’t skip the basics. A strong foundation will not only facilitate injury prevention, but also provide the groundwork for building important bio motor abilities such as speed, power, strength, agility, and conditioning.
Although I specialize in sport specific training, my time on the training floor is also spent coaching anyone looking to reach new fitness goals. Whether you’re an athlete or not, scientifically based programming can dramatically improve athletic performance and personal health.
