Frank started at Training Think Tank after completing the TTT Mentorship in 2022. He was the owner and head coach of Derive Athletics in Houston, Texas for eight years (2014-2022). Prior to that, he was the head coach of a CrossFit affiliate and a high school teacher.

Frank’s background in exercise and training started with high school sports and into coaching while pursuing a mathematics degree at the University of Houston. When he found CrossFit in 2012, he dove all in and combined his passion for teaching with his desire to help others discover new found health through functional movement.

In his time as a coach and affiliate owner, Frank has coached virtually every level of athlete: everyday gym-goers, National level weightlifters, Regional/Semifinal/Sanctional athletes and teams, and former collegiate and professional athletes. His passion in the gym lies in teaching the technical aspects of weightlifting and gymnastics through simple and practical methods.

Outside the gym, Frank enjoys spending time with his dog Leia (or any other dog), competing in games with his wife Allison, and anything involving cooking new food.
