Expertise

Major research efforts have focused in the areas of health and wellness including coach and athlete burnout, nutritional knowledge of coaches, athletes, and students, and nutritional intake (supplements, fast food, kilocalorie, and macronutrients) as compared to national and international guidelines. Utilizing my past experiences as a collegiate athlete and high school coach have made it possible to incorporate unique and creative ideas into my research.
