Professional Triathlon & Performance Engineering
Approaching elite triathlon from a performance engineering perspective.
Chasing the Top Level of Endurance Sports
I began competing as a swimmer in grade school and later added cross country/track and field in high school. I focused on running in college, but always planned to become a triathlete after graduating.
I started working with my coach James Petersen in 2021 and quickly rose to the top of the age group scene. 2025 was my rookie season as a professional, and we have used it as a way to gain experience training and racing at the top level while avoiding the pressure of trying to jump straight to the top.
As we build towards 2026, I have started several performance engineering projects that I will document in the Blog section of this website for those who may be interested.
-
I did my undergraduate studies in Electrical Engineering and Mathematics at the University of Michigan, and I am now pursuing a Master’s Degree in Electrical Engineering at Northeastern University. I have worked in the renewable energy sector since 2020
-
My background as an engineer led me to believe that it was possible to match the highly technical setups and training infrastructure of the top pros without the high cost/personnel

Current Projects include:
Open Source Aerodynamic Sensors-
Designed using an Arduino and low cost pressure sensors, these can perform real world Aero testing without the high cost of wind tunnel time or commerically available CdA sensors
Regression-Based Fitness Prediction Model-
A machine-learning model that imports training data to determine if specific interventions were effective or not
