I'm a former Big Ten volleyball player and a Division 1 coach with over a decade on the sidelines. I've played all three attacker positions — outside, opposite, and middle — so I am very aware what each role asks of the body and the mind.
I was also a multi-sport athlete, who remembers the chaotic youth athlete hustle vividly- bouncing from practice-to-practice, juggling games and schoolwork and fighting through fatigue and nagging injuries, yet enjoyed it so much.
Driven by that grind, I was selected Maryland Gatorade Player of the Year, became a Big Ten volleyball athlete, ranked in the Top 15 nationally in attack percentage in college and inducted into the Hall of Fame. But elite success came with an unnecessary price tag — season-ending injuries in college that left me navigating chronic pain I likely could have prevented if I was better prepared.
"The game is great at training your skills. However, it rarely teaches an athlete how to truly connect your mind and body to actually balance and sustain high performance."
I spent the next decade coaching at the Division 1 level and saw this training gap everywhere. KfiT Recovery & Reset is the system I wish I had at 13 years old; a personal coaching program that includes daily recovery and mindset work for volleyball athletes that would have saved my body and allowed me to play free.
You've already got the work ethic. Let's get your body and your mind on the same page!
