I've been climbing and working in the industry for over 10 years. Throughout that time I have made many mistakes in my climbing career and have learned from each and every one of them with the intent to not make them again. I’m someone who learns best by experiencing, questioning, and explaining it back to myself or others. Which is why when I work with individuals I always want to justify WHY we do something a certain way, not just explain the drill or just have them execute it.
During my time as a youth and adult coach I have been lucky enough to work with some of the top talent in the country. I was Alex Johnson’s personal coach during the 2018-2019 USA Climbing season, helping her secure a spot on the podium at Bouldering Nationals and on the US National Team, and preparing her for the 2019 World Cup season.
My specialties as a coach are movement comprehension, movement subtleties, movement efficiency, and attention to detail.
