About
I am a father of two, training for triathlons and grinding gravel for fitness, fun and mental health.
I coach swimming at Green Mountain Community Fitness, where I work with the Masters Swim group, private coaching clients and also work as the Aquatics Coordinator. In addition, I offer triathlon and cycling coaching.
I discovered triathlon in 2018, when I signed up for and completed three sprint distance races. I was very quickly hooked. I spent a lot of 2018-19 in recovery from concussion suffered during collision with a car while riding my bike. In 2019 I completed my first and second 70.3 races. In 2021 and 2022, I won the USAT National Championships in the Clydesdale division, qualifying both years for the World Triathlon Championships. In 2023 I competed in Spain for Team USA.
Training, for me, as about changing myself for better. It’s about finding consistency in health, both physical and mental/emotional, and about becoming the person always felt I was inside, but have never been able to materialize. Races are fun, but I’m here for lessons, to learning, and the growth.
