I’m a USA Cycling Level 1 certified coach based in California, coaching cyclists across the state and throughout the United States. I’ve been coaching since 2006 and hold the highest cycling coaching certification issued by USA Cycling.

Cycling Coaching Across California

California has some of the best year-round cycling terrain in the country. From the coastal roads and mountain routes of Southern California to the Sierra Nevada, the Central Valley, and the rolling hills of Northern California, there is terrain and a race calendar suited to every discipline. My athletes across California train on local roads and target a state event calendar that runs year-round.

What I Coach

I work with competitive amateur and masters cyclists focused on road racing, criteriums, time trials, gran fondos, gravel, and ultra endurance. Training is built around objective performance data using a power meter or heart rate monitor. Each plan is individualized to your fitness, schedule, and target events.

Aerodynamic Testing in California

In addition to coaching, I offer access to aerodynamic testing through facilities in California, including the San Diego Wind Tunnel and ERO testing at the Los Angeles Velodrome. Testing identifies position and equipment changes that reduce drag and improve speed. Learn more about aerodynamic testing.
