It is my belief that the most significant benefit from the field of applied sport psychology is that it enables its students and practitioners to address personal growth and development through the lens of sport. In this sense, athletics is the tool that we use in supporting a life well lived. Our performance, therefore, is maximized when we discover ways to develop ourselves beyond our current understanding and awareness. My courses for athletes, and for coaches, are designed with this in mind.
