I’m a UESCA, USAT and Ironman-certified triathlon coach and active masters athlete living on Maui — an ideal training environment with year-round terrain, ocean, and proximity to the Kona World Championships. I blend science-based training, real-world insight and smart structure to help endurance athletes balance data and intuition, train smarter, race stronger and build sustainable long-term performance.
My philosophy merges evidence-based training with individualised structure and self-awareness. Every plan is built around you — your physiology, schedule, goals and feedback. I use metrics (HR, power, pace, sleep) to guide — not dictate — your journey. I believe in consistent adaptation, open communication and education: you should understand the why behind every session. Coaching isn’t just about race day—it’s about building a sustainable, fulfilling relationship with endurance sport where science meets passion, effort meets intention, and progress meets joy.
