Over 15 years, I've accumulated deep insights into energy expenditure, fitness testing, and the delicate balance between body, mind, and nutritional habits. My research has been in esteemed journals, and my perspectives have been featured in renowned publications like National Geographic, Outside Magazine, Sports Illustrated and Runners World.  

Beyond the classroom, and at the heart of my extracurricular passions lies CTW Endurance, a trail racing company I co-founded. For the past six years, we've thrived on hosting not only adrenaline-packed trail races but also creating events that are welcoming yet formidable to all. We pride ourselves on designing challenges that push participants to their limits, encouraging them to confront and conquer their inner barriers, to truly understand that the world within is as vast and challenging as the one outside. Adjacent to this, my voice finds a platform on the 'Valued Pursuit' podcast that I co-host. Here, alongside a myriad of intriguing guests, we delve deep into a vast array of subjects, always circling back to one core tenet: the importance of valuing one's journey. Each episode is a testament to the continuous and relentless pursuit of bettering oneself, of striving for a superior, more refined version of who we are today. It's not just about the destination but the value we derive from the journey itself.
