The Unexpected Olympian

Lessons from sport that build courage, focus, and purpose in life and leadership.

I didn’t become an Olympian because everything went right. I became one because I learned to perform when it didn’t.

From the pool to the podium and beyond

I didn’t become an Olympian because everything went right.
I became one because I learned to perform when it didn’t.

As The Unexpected Olympian, I share lessons from sport that build courage, focus, and purpose in life and leadership. My keynotes and workshops help leaders and teams turn adversity into performance, on the field, in the boardroom, and beyond.
