Speed is my God given talent; it has been an important asset to my athletic ability. From the start of my athletic career as a basketball player, coaches noticed how fast and explosive I was. I began running track in the 8th grade and made good on my talent by winning our Catholic league 100m dash. That summer, I was recruited to join summer track club (AAU) and discovered just how fast I was; I placed 1st in the 100m and 200m at AAU Club Nationals. From that point on I focused on my gift and knew I could make a career out of it.

 

Being an exceptionally fast athlete helped me secure a scholarship to Central Michigan University. The journey to understand the training of my mind and body for athletic development began on that campus. My dreams of becoming the fastest man in the world was halted by my disappointing Freshman season. My clocked times were on par with the same times I posted when I was 16, surely I was faster than that?!?

 

I made it a point to get with a speed coach and learn exactly what it takes to be the fastest man in the world. The summer between freshman and sophomore year at CMU I spent countless hours on the track, in the weight room, and even in the classroom. Just as football and basketball players study film to improve, track runners do the same thing; I had no idea. Upon My return to CMU, I broke the 15 year old school record in the 60m dash. I went on to break more records, win championships, run the fastest time in the World, all culminating in an induction into the Central Michigan Athletics Hall of Fame.

 

Today I use my experience and knowledge to help athletes reach their athletic goals. Speaking real life truths about training and what it takes to be the best is a passion. Athletes will learn the art of athletic develop with a concentration on speed, agility and technique based fundamentals. They will leave my program with enough knowledge to pass on to teammates or even parlay interest in becoming a coach one day.
