Motivational Speaker

I'm an innovative Certified Professional Coach excited about human performance.

ABOUT ME

My coaching philosophy is deeply rooted in my core values: autonomy, integrity, courage, kindness, adventure and curiosity.

 

Through a career that spans the globe and challenges the limits of human endurance, I've dedicated myself to guiding high achievers toward transcending their perceived boundaries, achieving peak performance, and realizing their fullest potential.

My journey into the profound world of coaching began with transformative courses with Landmark Education in 2003.

 

This experience unveiled the power of coaching technologies, setting the foundation for my evolution as both a coach, an elite ultra-distance athlete, and a lifelong learner.

Athlete, Speaker & Film Producer

As an endurance athlete, I've not only climbed 50 podiums in trail running, obstacle course racing and self-supported ultra running, but have also chronicled one of my experiences, producing the documentary film Facing Infinitus.

 

This film delves into the deeper motivations behind such an extreme challenge, revealing how the Infinitus 888 km race pushes participants beyond the physical into a realm where fears are confronted, limits are redefined, and the journey becomes a profound personal commitment.

 

My athletic journey is more than a series of races; it's a testament to the resilience, determination, and spirit of adventure that I bring to my coaching practice.

As a compelling public speaker, I leverage my diverse experiences to teach and inspire audiences, embodying the role of a sherpa of dreams.

 

I share not only my athletic achievements but also the deeper journey of self-discovery and empowerment that accompanies such endeavors.

 

My message is clear:

with the right guidance, discipline, and determination, achieving the extraordinary is not just possible—it's inevitable.

Human Performance Coaching

In the world of trail running & fitness, I became the coach I was seeking: one with a holistic approach that encompasses not just running but also strength training and a deep understanding of the human spirit.

 

My coaching goes beyond physical preparation, focusing on empowering and teaching individuals to harness their innate potential and transform it into performance excellence.

 

I hold certifications and experience as Running Coach, Massage Therapist, CrossFit Level 2 Trainer, and Advanced Professional Coach.
