about my journey
I discovered that resilience and discipline are not separate paths, but one journey. By overcoming struggles with drugs and alcohol, I trained my mind to endure, adapt, and rise. Ultrarunning became the proving ground—a place where fortitude forged in my journey of overcoming carried me across impossible distances I once thought were impossible.
​
Through Mind Over Miles, I share this truth: the strength that conquers addiction is the same strength that conquers the miles. My coaching is more than training plans—it’s a call to embrace struggle, cultivate discipline, and uncover the unbreakable spirit within.
​
I am more than a coach—I’m a testament to resilience. My journey began in the shadows of addiction, where I discovered that the hardest miles are not on the trail, but within the mind. Ultrarunning became my path to transformation, a proving ground where grit and soul carried me beyond what once seemed impossible.
