My research interests focus on athletic performance, supplementation, and special populations (Parkinson’s disease). My recent investigations have focused on improving athletic performance through improved strength, power, and body composition.  Focusing my research on athletic performance, I have been able to provide hands-on learning experiences for students within the community.  These experiences have included athlete testing and research within the NHL, NFL, and NCAAF. Furthermore, I currently work with several professional MMA (UFC) fighters.
