Hi, I'm Dr. Denise 

Professionally I am a doctor of health education specializing in health behavior and health psychology. I am also a board-certified health and triathlon coach - which is simply a fancy way of saying that I help people to be healthy and experience joy in life and sports.

As a triathlete, I know what it's like to have big goals and need to chunk challenges to meet them.  I understand the struggle of balancing training, work, and home life. I would love to help you explore new habits and systems to train and race more confidently and care for your mind-body in a way that supports vibrant health, and longevity.

For me, triathlon helps me to be the best version of myself. Most days you'll find me teaching and training with two black retrievers by my side. If I'm not doing that, then I'm in the outdoor sauna with friends.  I live a nature-inspired lifestyle at Cedar + Stone in southern, Maine.

THE MISSION

 

Support athletes with evidence-based tools and guidance to facilitate vibrant health, breakthrough performances, and podium finishes.

THE VISION

A world full of athletes embracing a longevity mindset and experiencing joy in sport and life.
