Good luck to Maya as she officially kicks off her sophomore season swimming for the Louisville Cardinals in the NCAA!

I’ve had the pleasure of coaching Maya for many years now, and she is truly a world-class athlete who continues to overcome challenges and obstacles with determination and perseverance. Her resilience and dedication are evident in everything she does, both in and out of the pool.

Being an elite student-athlete is remarkably difficult, and Maya continues to rise to the challenge with flying colours. She’s always working hard to be at the top of her game, both in the pool and in the classroom.

Have a great season, Maya! Keep pushing hard, keep believing in yourself, and keep chasing your goals! 🏊‍♀️

Big congratulations to my guys Liam and Connor on bringing home gold medals in each of their divisions at the final tournament of the season with the Canadian Junior Golf Association Championships. 🏆🏆

It’s a pleasure and an honour to support these two brothers on their journeys and help them master the mindset required to perform in one of the hardest sports in the world.

These two young men couldn’t be more different in personality, and yet both are finding their own ways to be successful. That’s important because there’s so much emphasis in sports today on a cookie-cutter approach — one way to think, one way to train, one way to succeed.

The truth is, there isn’t just one way.

You can succeed in many different ways as long as you’re committed to your process.

When working with young athletes, two of the most important traits I emphasize is to be yourself and be patient. It’s a long road ahead, and you can’t get too caught up in the successes or failures early on. Set the plan, be yourself, trust the process, and see it through.

The ones who become great are the ones who never quit.

Keep pushing, boys! Looking forward to seeing where this journey takes you. 💪

Congratulations to Jordan on winning his first professional golf tournament — the Legends Niagara Battlefield Tournament! 🏆⛳️

It’s an honour to be able to support Jordan along his journey and watch him continue to develop as a player and competitor. He’s just getting started, and I’m looking forward to seeing where this game takes him.

Great job, Jordan! Let’s go! 🔥

Good luck to Maria as she heads back for her senior year playing NCAA soccer! ⚽️

She’s put in an incredible amount of work this summer, and I’m excited to see what all that work looks like on the field this season. There’s something pretty special about watching an athlete put in the work behind the scenes and then seeing it show up when it matters.

The best time of the year for me is when the athletes come home. Getting to work with them, push them, and watch them continue to grow is one of the best parts of what I get to do.

And then comes the bittersweet part… watching them head back to their teams. I definitely miss having them around, but there’s also something special about sending them off knowing they’re ready to take on another season.

Have an amazing senior season, Maria. I can’t wait to see what you do! 👊⚽️

Congratulations to Scarlett on winning a silver medal at the Commonwealth Games in Glasgow, Scotland, against some of the best competition in the world.

What people see is the podium. What they don’t see are the years of relentless work, sacrifice, setbacks, injuries, exhaustion, doubt, and unwavering commitment that made this moment possible.

High-performance sport is an unforgiving journey. It’s the countless solo drives to Montreal for weekend training camps, only to turn around and do it all again. It’s balancing work, pursuing excellence with little to no funding, relying on the generosity of supporters, and continuing to chase a dream despite every obstacle. That’s the part few people ever get to witness.

This silver medal represents so much more than a result. It represents resilience, commitment, sacrifice, and the courage to keep showing up when nothing is guaranteed.

It’s been an honour and a privilege to be part of your journey over the years and to witness not only the athlete you’ve become, but the person you’ve grown into along the way.

Congratulations, Scarlett. This medal isn’t just a silver medal—it’s the reward for years of choosing the hard road when the easy one was always available.

It’s been a pleasure working with Nick alongside his golf coach, Ryan Borg, for his first season of competitive golf.

Nick is just getting started, and he already has the qualities that matter most—he’s driven, determined, coachable, and fully committed to becoming the best golfer he can be. With the work he’s putting in, he’s building a strong foundation to take this game as far as he wants to.

I love working with golfers because they possess a mindset that’s unlike almost any other athlete. The game demands resilience, discipline, patience, and the ability to stay composed through constant adversity. Every round is a mental challenge as much as a physical one, and learning to embrace that is what separates good players from great ones.

Excited to be part of Nick’s journey. This is just the beginning

One of the greatest rewards of what I get to do isn’t just helping athletes perform at their best—it’s having the privilege of walking alongside them as they grow through every chapter of their journey.

I believe that success is about so much more than medals, rankings, or championships. It’s about the person you become through the pursuit of personal greatness.

This weekend, I had the honour of being part of Ryan’s wedding—another incredible milestone in a life that’s been built on hard work, character, and perseverance.

The second photo takes us back to 2014, when we first started working together. Over the past 12 years, I’ve had the privilege of supporting Ryan through countless highs, challenges, victories, and lessons. Watching him continue to grow as both an athlete and a man has been one of the greatest rewards of my career.

Ryan, thank you for allowing me to be a small part of your journey. Congratulations to you and your beautiful bride. I’m excited to see where life—and your career—take you next.

About a year and a half ago, Sebastian came to me with a goal that most people would consider unrealistic: he wanted to compete in an Olympic sport.

After some research, we landed on modern pentathlon—a sport that includes swimming, fencing, obstacle racing, and the laser-run. At the time, he had limited swimming experience, had never fenced, and had never shot a laser pistol.

So we built a plan, and he got to work.

Over the next 18 months, he committed himself fully to the process. He embraced the challenge of learning entirely new skills, showed up consistently, and never wavered when things got difficult.

A few weeks ago, that work paid off when he competed in his first event—the Canadian National Championships.

What impresses me most isn’t that he competed in nationals. It’s the courage to pursue something completely outside his comfort zone and the discipline required to stay committed to a goal that takes years, not weeks, to achieve.

Sebastian is a great example of what can happen when determination, resilience, and action come together. It’s been an honour to be part of his journey, and I’m excited to see what comes next.

That’s a wrap on another season. 💫

Congrats to Zac on another strong year in the Professional National Lacrosse League.

What he’s done in his career is remarkable—transitioning from professional hockey to professional lacrosse and becoming a true two-sport athlete. That’s something you rarely see—because the level of discipline, sacrifice, and years of relentless work it takes to achieve it is on another level entirely.

I am grateful to have the opportunity to support him over the years, and excited to see how he continues to grow and excel in all areas of life.

Big congrats to Ryan on a remarkable season—winning the league scoring title and the midseason Pro Italian Cup, finishing the last month scoring 3 Hat Tricks! 🏒

A lot of people see the success and the glory, but not many see what it truly takes to get there. The road is never easy—it’s filled with ups and downs, uncertainty, and adversity.

Having witnessed Ryan’s journey firsthand, I can say he’s one of the most resilient individuals I’ve ever met. No matter what he commits to, he goes all in.

Excited to see what’s next for him. 💫

Shout out to my friend .imac and his team at for their support in his preparation.
