I am very excited to enhance the OMNI performance program by integrating new athletic testing procedures and customizing programs to bring maximum benefit to each athlete and team. Additionally, I am looking forward to building relationships and being involved in my community in Northern California.
Training Philosophy
As a Physical Therapist and Strength & Conditioning Coach, I strive to provide each athlete an opportunity to become the best version of themselves on and off the court. It is my responsibility to have a positive impact on every athlete’s health and performance. I do this through maintaining high standards of leadership, communication, and education. Within a supportive and collaborative team culture, the athletes will be exposed to up to date information, and actively involved in understanding the “why” behind training programs and assessments.
Goals for Athletes
My primary goal is to improve performance on the court, not in the weight room. Athletes and coaches will be presented with scientific-based information to make informed choices to improve player durability, resiliency, movement efficiency, sport performance, position specific conditioning and manage injury risk.
