Life update: concussion, rest, and what’s next...
Limited slots to work with me directly
The end of this past season looked a lot different than I imagined. A concussion in March meant I spent the final stretch in Maaseik at home or watching from the stands — learning new levels of patience, trust, and letting go.
It was easily the most difficult injury I have ever been through. As well as the toughest end to a season I've ever had. What I thought would be a few days turned into five weeks of suffering. A vestibular concussion and nervous system injury like I’ve never known.
It also gave me my first true off-season in over a decade. More than ten straight years of chasing the next edge, national team rosters, or personal training blocks… I finally had a chance to hit pause (a bit).
New York City, Princeton Reunions, some coaching in the DC area, a best-friend’s wedding in Portugal, Berlin and German summertime, and a quick trip to Italy have been the highlights alongside Nina.
Now, batteries recharged, we’re gearing up for a new adventure: I’ve proudly signed to play in Israel for Maccabi Tel Aviv this coming season. Very excited to explore such a beautiful culture, compete at a high level, connect, and continue to embrace all the doors volleyball continues to open.
If you or your team wants to dive deeper into the game (or the mindset behind it), I’m opening up slots for calls just for these next four weeks. Whether you want to break down skills, get honest advice on navigating setbacks, or just pick my brain on what it takes to thrive long-term on and off the court — I’d love to connect.
For the next four weeks only I’ve opened up limited slots to work directly with me.
Book a call here and let’s make your next step a strong one.
I want to be fully present once I get to Tel Aviv, so this is a small window.
This is your chance to dive deep into your game — or your team’s — with personalized insight from someone who’s lived the journey from overlooked, to University, to pro, to National Team, to mentor and coach.
