About Me

Started his Strength & Conditioning journey in the Spring of 2015 volunteering at East Stroudsburg University with their Swim & Dive team. In the Summer of 2015, he began his first Internship at Lehigh University working with Football when he learned he wanted to do this for a living. The following Spring Dan was given more teams to assist and coach at ESU, which helped develop his skills as an inspiring young Student S&C Coach.

Realizing the competitive nature of this field, Dan took on another Internship in the Summer of 2016 working with Football for Villanova. During his last semester at ESU, he took on a Volunteer Assistant position at Moravian College where he worked with multiple teams getting as much experience as possible.

The beginning of 2017 was spent at his last internship with the Game Cocks in Columbia working with Football and Track & Field. This internship would lead to him getting his first paid Assistant S&C job at Elon University working with Football as well as assisting all other Olympic teams. After his time at Elon, he moved onto the University of Nevada for over 2 years working with Football, Track & Field, Swim & Dive, Baseball, & Golf. During his time at Nevada, Dan received an opportunity to work with James Madison University having the responsibility of assisting Football while being the Head S&C Coach for a top ranked Lacrosse team, as well as their Field Hockey and Tennis team. This takes Dan to his current employment at Colorado State University as the Associate Director of Strength & Conditioning working with Football. Dan has been accompanied by his beautiful and encouraging wife Mitzi throughout this entire journey and wouldn’t be here without her support.
