It wasn’t until I graduated from medical school and began my surgical residency that I realized how growing up playing sports, and ultimately receiving a scholarship to play baseball at Texas Christian University (undergrad) and Hofstra University (grad school), prepared my mind to handle a significant amount of stress. I was amazed to discover that the skills I developed as an athlete, on how to manage substantial pressure, are the exact same skills that now allow me to have control over my body and mind in the high-intensity environment of the operating room.

After coming to this realization, I began to question why so little emphasis is placed on instructing youth athletes how to develop a mentality that will improve their ability to find success both on and off the field.  This is why I started 6|Lobes Training™. By utilizing my experiences as a surgical resident, a graduate of Texas A&M Medical School, a former Division I collegiate baseball player, and a holder of a Master’s Degree in Sports Science, I developed the 6|Lobes Mental Strength Training Program© to help build elite mentalities in youth athletes. A mentality that will not only help youth athletes achieve success in their sport, but also in their pursuit of achieving their ultimate dreams outside of athletics.
