About Us

The Performance Lab was started with a passion to bring high-quality, data-driven, intelligent training to the community of Wake Forest, RTP, and world of sports. I believe that every athlete should have access to high level coaching and elite level training, and a lot of places I have been these two are lacking if not completely absent. I don’t believe that I have all the answers, but what I do know  is that I have a passion to try and understand as much as I can and maintain a growth mindset throughout; to know more and to know better. It's why we believe that, "If better is possible, good is not enough."‍

One of my favorite quotes is from the late physicist, Dr. Richard Feynman; "Being wrong isn't a bad thing...It is an opportunity to learn something." For us, we are not afraid of being wrong. However, we do fear not knowing a better way to do something. My experiences have shown me a world in sports and fitness that is archaic, where most people are living by the principles of "this is how it’s always been done" or "this is how I was taught to do it" or "it worked for me." At the Performance Lab we say, “This may be how it has always been done, but is there a better way?”

At The Performance Lab we use data to drive the way we train and develop our athletes. "Complacency is the act of non-action driven by negative fear." It is okay to be afraid. It is not okay to allow that fear to stop growth.
