SHIFT Performance Training exists to develop athleticism and confidence through structured performance training and a culture built on growth, accountability, and long-term development.

My journey as a coach began after a knee surgery at age 16 changed the way I viewed athletics. That experience sparked a passion for training and helping people reach their goals. I went on to play collegiate soccer at Frostburg State University, where I earned my B.S. in Exercise & Sport Science and became a Certified Strength & Conditioning Specialist (CSCS) through the NSCA.

After college, life took me throughout the DMV area, where I worked with youth, collegiate, and professional athletes across a wide variety of sports, as well as adults with performance-focused training goals, from 2018 until returning home in 2026.

I specialize in strength development, speed and change of direction, return-to-play support, and long-term athletic development. Above all, I’m passionate about helping people learn how to train with purpose and achieve their goals while growing physically and mentally.

Outside of coaching, I enjoy traveling and trying new food spots with my wife and son, training in the gym, soccer, snowboarding, a daily dose of caffeine, and anything related to car detailing and car culture.

SHIFT is about more than training.

Through structured coaching and a culture centered on growth and accountability, athletes develop confidence, resilience, discipline, and leadership skills that extend far beyond sport.

The mission is to create an environment where athletes not only improve performance, but become role models for the next generation and positively impact their teams, schools, and community.
