About me

Master’s graduate in Sports Training and Performance Optimization (STAPS), specialized in strength & conditioning and return-to-play management. Experienced in elite youth football environments, I operate across the full performance continuum, from athletic development and load management to injury prevention and rehabilitation support.
Versatile in both field-based and gym-based training, I adapt programs to athletes’ age, maturity, and competitive demands. I also have hands-on experience in combat sports (wrestling, MMA), developing strength, power, conditioning, and weight management for high-intensity disciplines.
Proficient with performance technologies (GPS, VALD, force platforms, RPE), I work closely with medical and coaching staffs to optimize athlete availability and performance.
