I am committed to supporting athletes so they may leverage their skills and leave their sport better prepared to pursue their own professional development while continuing to lead a life of purpose. Through my coaching, I mentor athletes to instill a sense of ownership and pride in their personal and athletic accomplishments, by using a development model where they identify goals and map their journey towards success during and after their athletic careers.
I support athletes and teams by developing a confidential partnership, with only one goal: to help them improve performance and become the best version of themselves through self-efficacy, better decision making, increased capacity for creating change, and development of an inner dialogue that allows for higher performance. One-on-one coaching requires engagement on both sides with custom designed actions that demand accountability.

I also offer small group coaching sessions in person or online through Zoom. The benefits of group sessions are:
I support athletes so they can achieve their best performances. I do this by helping them come up with a well thought out mental training and pre-performance plan, offering strategies for handling the pressures of training, competition and college recruiting, learning how to train and compete with intention, developing mental toughness by using tools such as imagery, relaxation and mindfulness training, how to deal with injury, and managing distractions that go along with high performance.
I support former and high-performing athletes who are currently active and/or in transition, so they may leave a legacy, expand their skills, and manage change so they are able to leave their sport better prepared to pursue their own professional development while continuing to lead a life of purpose. I do this by helping my clients evaluate where they are currently and where they are headed, by understanding what their purpose & values are, and how they can use their strengths in order to be the best versions of themselves while moving from one success to another. I provide ongoing support through the transition they are facing. Planning for life after sport is crucial, and managing that transition takes thoughtful attention.
I partner with individuals to create more meaning and impact in their life. I believe athletes are whole people who are more than just their performance on any given day. An assessment of core values, motivations and passions, as well as attention around self-care and mental health is employed and essential for finding a joy-filled and purpose-driven life on and off the playing field.
I help athletes develop their leadership skills by building key relationships through improved interpersonal communication, building engagement through their team, and developing leadership presence.
I help coaches evaluate and grow their emotional intelligence skills by taking advantage of each of the five components of EI (self-awareness, self-regulation, motivation, empathy, and social skill) to improve their leadership, build strong relationships and team cohesion, get the most out of their athletes, and to help them perform to the best of their abilities.
