Justin was a multi-sport athlete in high school who played baseball and volleyball. However, in the spring of his junior year, he suffered his first of three concussions that would all take place prior to graduation. These injuries caused Justin to miss most of that baseball season and all the ensuing volleyball season. This experience led to doubts if he would ever be able to play sports again or make an impact in the field. Due to this life experience, Justin desired to help others that may face similar obstacles. Whether it be injury recovery, self-doubt, or motivation, Justin is determined to help his athletes be their best self between the ears, so that they can be their best self on the playing field.
