Get to know me

From a young age, I was always drawn to the world of competitive sport and performance. My passion began on the football field, where I played throughout my life — including at the university level. During that time, I saw firsthand the mental and emotional challenges that impact performance, both on and off the field.

Those experiences inspired me to pursue a career helping athletes, professionals, and teams strengthen the mental side of their game. I believe true performance comes from more than just physical preparation but is built on confidence, connection, and mental resilience.

Today, I work with clients to help them reach new levels of clarity, confidence, and fulfillment. My mission is to help people fall in love with their craft, embrace challenge, and enjoy the growth that comes from striving to be their best.
