As a success coach to elite athletes, I give my clients the cutting edge tools and strategies to develop and maintain a premier mindset that supports their peak performance on the field and in life.
I offer a powerful combination of sports psychology tools and emotional intelligence skills to create balance within your mind, body, feelings, and intention. This balance opens the door to a truer and more expanded vision of your potential. With this vision, we then create a training style that paves the way for optimal performance in every area of your life.
My clients create the conditions to thrive in all areas without compromises. Will you become a better athlete if you work with me? Yes, without a doubt. You’ll also become a more integrated person, which creates a happier, healthier and more successful life.
I’ll continually encourage you to reach both deeper and higher in your commitment to success. Our coaching container will stretch and expand to match your evolution, and you will find yourself consistently at your growth edge. Together we’ll get you to where you desire to be. And then we’ll discover where you’d like to go next.
I work with elite athletes and organizations who are hungry for the next level, and who are willing to question any way of thinking or being that is an obstacle to their victory. Contact me, and we’ll talk about what success means to you. Then we’ll make it happen.

Dan Buchner, Pro Golfer
Interviewing for a job, auditioning for a lead role in a major TV show, competing in the Olympics, or even holding an important meeting requires a greater level of focus, discipline, and preparation. To ensure your best performance, never prepare for these so called life-defining moments by making them “the moment.”
They say the game of golf mirrors the game of life. I’d have to agree. In fact, it was picking up a golf club for the first time that completely shifted my life’s direction. Let me explain.
As babies, we enter the world brave, vivacious, adventurous and courageous. We frolic naked, make messes, throw our food, shamelessly demand what we want, fearlessly express love, and never deny the urge to cry. Within a few years, we find ourselves in school with a developing ego. This means we start to understand the concept of approval and begin to seek it out. Discomfort becomes our compass: if something is uncomfortable, we retreat. We feel most safe when we’re validated by our parents, teachers, friends and other members of society. It’s at this point when we begin to prioritize the comfort of those around us over our own.
