Welcome to my contact page. I work as a consultant and coach spending most of my time and effort helping to run Starting Strength and Starting Strength Gyms. I have an extensive background in teaching, developing coaches, fighting people, and teaching others how to fight.
I have spent my adult life refining my craft as a self defense, firearms, and strength coach and educator focusing primarily on coach development and mentorship. Working alongside Mark Rippetoe and Stef Bradford, the creators of the Starting Strength method, I have helped grow the Starting Strength brand globally in my role as overseer of media production, brand standards, coach development, and seminars.
I’m a BJJ brown belt and head coach at Iowa Park Jiu Jitsu Club in North Texas, which my wife and I own, and I’ve helped launch multiple successful self defense and fitness businesses. I’ve been a Starting Strength Coach since 2011, a graduate of the Rangemaster Advanced Pistol Instructor and Defensive Shotgun Instructor Courses, and am an expert strength coach specializing in performance improvement through barbell training. I’ve got 20 years of experience teaching and coaching self defense and an extensive background in private security.
