BARBELL SPORT
Snatch . Clean . Jerk . Repeat

MY STORY
I found my passion for coaching after realizing the positive impact weightlifting can have on peoples’ lives. One of the biggest obstacle I faced throughout the early years as a competitor was my own fear of failure. Yet, in the face of that fear, I took a position as a CrossFit Coach in a brand new garage gym in Austin, Texas in 2005. Through hard work and determination, I destroyed my fear and helped turn that garage gym into CrossFit Central, one of the largest and most successful CrossFit Affiliates in the world.
During that time, I also found my passion for Olympic weightlifting and developed a premier Olympic lifting program that has grown into Barbell Sport. I have a no frills, in your face gym in Austin and I travel in Central Texas hosting seminars for athlets looking to learn more about the Olympic lifts or to hone their skills.
My mission is to light a fire within my athletes and inspire them to conquer their fears in the same way I have…hard work and determination.
