"In early 2009 I had the opportunity to try the Adamo Racing saddle while on a training trip in Tucson. After one ride I made the switch to the ISM saddle. I experienced immediate comfort and relief from my previous saddle which has allowed me to ride faster & harder more consistently. ISM’s commitment to quality & performance is unmatched!"

ABOUT “YOU”

Growing up my dream was to become a professional soccer player. While I never made it to the pitch of the MLS, I had a heck of a lot of fun playing through college and in the men’s beer league post college. Triathlon was initially a way to maintain a bit of fitness and has evolved into a great lifestyle. My approach to the sport is simple: do the work to the best of my ability, listen to my body, be consistent & recover.

My faith is a big part of my athletic career and I have found great joy as I have grown both athletically & spiritually in my 10 years in the sport. Both in life & during a tough training session or race I know I will never be given more than I can handle.

I am a big fan of keeping things balanced with family, friends and life outside of swim, bike and run.
