More About Coach Jill

I'm the head men's and women's cross country coach and assistant indoor and outdoor sprints and hurdles coach at Rutgers Camden. I've been coaching youth, teens, and young adults for over 20 years. I have coached elementary, middle, high school, club as well as college cross country and track. I'm USTFCCA certified as well as Altis sprint hurdle trained. I train sprint and long hurdles as well as sprinters, mid and long distance runners. Some of my clients are All Americans and elite runners/hurdlers and my goal is to promote a positive attitude and enjoyment of the sport. If you're entering the police academy and need help with the PT test, I also coach future law enforcement officers.

I was a successful division III mid distance and distance runner at Rutgers Camden. I was on multiple record holding relay teams including the 4x100, 4x400m, and distance medley team. I was an all conference 4x400 relay team member, Second team all conference for the 1500m and 5000m, Honorable Mention in the 10,000 m, and all NJIAAW for cross country. In high school, I was a successful 400 intermediate hurdler and an all county field hockey player. I currently run, mountain bike, swim, and kayak for fun.

Clients can expect a mix of fun and challenging workouts including wicket drills, jumping rope, dynamic warm ups, speed drills, and event specific drills.

Client Reviews

Coach Jill was amazing! She’s so knowledgeable and easy to work with. My daughter was nervous at the start, but Coach Jill’s laidback and positive demeanor put her at ease right away. Her expertise is invaluable.

Jill has been such a great help! She is very knowledgeable, encouraging, and flexible with her schedule. What I truly appreciate is her desire to train WITH her clients. Not only does she demonstrate how a drill or run should be executed, she actively participates in the workout so you aren't exercising alone. Her feedback has already improved my running form!

Coach Jill is awesome! She listened to my child, and she recommended steps to improve his problem areas. I would recommend coach Jill to anyone!

Jill is a really knowledgeable and resourceful coach. She has a really well rounded personality, and she is able to relate to my very shy 11 year old daughter. She’s passionate about coaching and has a way of making you feel hopeful and excited about the process. My daughter wanted to learn hurdles and she started from the very beginning to make sure she really knows and understands what she is doing. I trust her methods. My daughter also trusts her and sit shows from the progress she have made. I really feel that she genuinely wants my daughter to do well.

I worked with Jill to learn to 3 step for the 100 hurdles event. I only had a few months of experience before working with her, and she gave me drills that helped tremendously, and I quickly achieved the 3 step. Going into my winter season, I feel confident because of Jill’s experience in hurdles; she gave me the training my coaches didn’t because of their lack of experience with them.
Jill is a supportive coach and trainer and is extremely knowledgeable with running and core conditioning. Highly recommend Jill!
Jill trained my 13 yr old in Javelin. He’s not the most athletic, but she did an amazing job of finding something that he would enjoy and that he could excel at based on his strengths. Jill does a great job relating to the kids and finding that balance between pushing them and supporting them.
Jill has coached both my sons over the years. For my oldest she has helped him improve his fundamentals in sprinting which has improved his time. For my youngest she has helped him enjoy cross country and as a result he has excelled. I’ve seen her work with kids of all ages and she always finds a way to make cross country, track and field engaging and fun.
