Meet the Coach

Born to incredibly hard-working Croatian immigrants, I was raised in a family where if you wanted to participate in sports, you'd need to find a ride.

Luckily for me, my older brother would drop me off in some pretty rough neighborhoods to play basketball so I would have "good competition".

I would stay for hours and fight my way to a win.

And somehow, I always did find a ride, whether it was to practice in high school or to travel for an away-game. 

​

After several years of intense training, I was realizing my dream of playing pro basketball as a point guard for the Adriatic League in Croatia, the land of my roots. 

But it was there that I incurred an injury that would ultimately send me down the path towards what would become my passion + profession. 

After graduating from Utah State University, I began working as a Certified Strength and Conditioning Coach, with a passion for injury prevention and recovery.

​

With a master's degree in health and human movement, I have spent the last 25 years coaching professionally, both in Division I college athletics, and most recently overseas with the US Military.

My focus has always been the same; to see people become what they never thought possible.

​

The human mind has a way of setting false limitations, and I like to help people break through them!

Advanced technology now allows us to carefully and accurately track hundreds of metrics so we can monitor progress every step of the way.

​

Life isn't always easy.

Obstacles will always make their way in.

Excuses sometimes win.

But you are designed and built like an oak tree, i.e. "Oak Built", whether you know it or not;

Built to withstand,

Built to overcome.

You have a seed of new life inside of you, undiscovered potential waiting to be realized.

You have more resilience and steadfastness in you than you know, strength for every season. 

​

If you believe in yourself enough to know that you have a right and the ability to be strong, healthy, and thriving, I'd be honored to coach you!

​

In good health,
