Professional Profile:
Formal Education:
Utah State University - Bachelors of Exercise Science: with an emphasis in exercise physiology, and sports nutrition,
Coaching Philosophy:
My approach to coaching is to help each skater achieve the goals they have set for themselves and encourage them to be confident and proud of what they are doing on and off the ice. My success is measured by the success of my students as they progress through the sport and, more importantly, by the joy and satisfaction they discover through figure skating. Skating is a process, and I want each student to learn to love the journey as they go! I consider building the character of the skaters just as important as developing my student’s skills.
