Discipling athletes in the biblical principles of creation through redemption.

In the 25 years preceding my healthcare career, over 33 million Americans lost their lives to preventable noncommunicable diseases (NCDs). That's equivalent to the entire population of California. This statistic underscores my deep passion for unlocking human potential, instead of simply treating disease. As I’ve explored the science of molecular sports physiology and long-term athlete development (LTAD), I’ve become increasingly captivated by the adaptive capacity of the human body—an interest that led me into creation studies. This convergence of science and faith has stirred a desire to reform healthcare, by shifting its philosophy toward a biblical worldview and lifestyle-based approaches. 

I have a vision to ((reform healthcare one athlete at a time)) and a goal to communicate the intentionality, excellence, and redemptive purpose found in Christ.
