I recently graduated from University of Rhode Island with a bachelors of Science. I then worked at a college in Rhode Island strictly working with student athletes. I trained mainly with groups such as football, softball, baseball and field hockey. I was the second assistant to the head strength coach. I loved my job but decided I wanted to travel so I moved to Nashville, TN in September 2015. I now coach 5th and 6th graders in basketball, and will coach high school softball in the spring. While coaching I am also studying to take my NSCA-CSCS. I am hoping to take this test in March.

I never played sports in College, although I wanted to I decided to focus more on my academics. In high school I was a starting forward on my varsity field hockey team, and I was also a starting freshman pitcher for my varsity softball team. I was the captain of my lacrosse team my senior year as well.

Seeing how I am use to working with college athletes, I know how to breakdown a session depending on the specific sport. Depending on how many sessions a week, I would have two low intensity days an two high intensity days (4 day sessions) Depending on the sport would alternate my program. Softball players I would work more on hip rotation exercises and lateral drills.
