Motto:  "Day by day growth”

My entire life I’ve been an active person.  Always looking for new ways to motivate myself and others, it’s no surprise to my friends and family that I’ve ended up here.  It’s been a dream of mine for many years to train athletes and individuals in achieving their goals on and off the field. 

  • B.S. in Kinesiology from UW-Madison

  • M.S. in Pathology from UW-Madison

  • Certified strength and conditioning specialist (C.S.C.S.) since 2000

  • Certified in Level I Functional Martial Arts Muay Thai Kickboxing

  • Continued Education Training: Pre-Natal/Pregnancy/Post-Natal and Pelvic Core Dysfunctions - more specifically the demands of pregnancy

  • Played Soccer for the University of Wisconsin Badgers

  When I’m not training athletes or training individuals, you can find me playing soccer, spending time with my husband, 4 daughters, and working on my 8 Miles for Water Ministry.  I also enjoy going to Bible Study and Church and being in the Word of God.

Motto:  “Don't copy the behaviors and customs of this world, but let God transform you into a new person by changing the way you think.  Then you learn to know God's will for you, which is good and pleasing and perfect.  Romans 12:2”

Mara and I have been looking forward to opening L.I.F.Training Health & Athletic Fitness Club since shortly after we met in 1998.  We both knew almost right away that our professional goals were a match: training and independently helping athletes attain their goals, no matter what age or fitness level.  

  • I have trained athletes in almost all sports.

  • Intern/assistant UW Strength and conditioning coach 1999-2000

  • Former football player for the Wisconsin Badgers

  • Member of the 1998 Big Ten Champion & 1999 Rose Bowl Champion Wisconsin Football team

  • Professionally trained over a thousand athletes for over the past decade

When I’m not in trainings with various teams or individuals, I enjoy spending time with my beautiful wife and 4 daughters. Also I enjoy working on our 8 Miles for Water Ministry to serve those in need and glorifying God.
