About Me

I am a former International Long Jumper for England and current Track & Field coach. During the 2019 to 2021 seasons I was the Jumps & Multi Events coach for the NCAA National Team Champions, the University of Southern California (USC). Prior to USC I coached at The University of California, Berkeley (2016-2019).

I am the author of The Horizontal Jumps: Planning For Long Term Development (2012). Throughout my coaching career I have developed athletes in a wide array of sports, and of all levels and ages. My true passion lies in the sport of Track and Field and specifically working with jumpers and Multi Event athletes.

My new book The Jumps: A Comprehensive Training System is in the works and will be published in 2021.
