As the director of the Total Performance testing Lab, I perform VO2 max, resting metabolic and body fat composition testing on many different populations. I specialize in heart rate zone training and program development. I also develop and personally train individuals who want strength and conditioning programs specifically designed to meet their goals.

I was a Division I track and Cross Country athlete in college at University of New Orleans (UNO). At UNO I majored in exercise physiology and studied nutrition. It was there I began doing exercise testing with a professor studying many populations including obese children. During my undergraduate studies I also worked at a sports and conditioning center performing exercise testing and designing training programs for many different populations. I trained a broad spectrum of athletes as well as assisted with training NFL and MLB players and the New Orleans Brass Hockey team. I had the experience of working with a number of competitive triathletes, 12 yr old nationally ranked gymnist, professional jockey, competitive wrestler, bodybuilder and geriatric populations. My experiences are not only with athletes but phase III cardiac rehab as well as other post surgery patients. I am presently assisting with a study through Johns Hopkins on the effects of pre and post exercise on abdominal surgery patients.

I have also worked in many physical therapy clinics including Johns Hopkins outpatient center. My experiences in physical therapy include working with the Orioles baseball players as well as rehabbing a number of overuse injuries.

My formal education continued at Goucher College where I received a Masters degree in athletic administration and worked with Cross-Country and Track & Field athletes. I now work with 20 different sports teams at Towson University on athletic development.

I have worked with individuals, sports teams and professional athletes in both endurance and power sports. Testing athletes has become both a specialty and a passion of mine because I can relate to my clients. I presently compete in triathlons and am a member of Team USA. I feel that I understand the desire to gain physiological insight to improve oneself and maximize the benefits of exercise time the most efficient and effective way possible.
