John began working with the Darien High School football team in 2006 and has since become an integral part of the success of Darien’s athletic program. Throughout his tenure, he has trained more than 100 All-State football players and many more who earned All-FCIAC honors. He has also trained four FCIAC and state championship football teams, including the 2015, 2016, 2017, and 2021 squads that finished as the No. 1-ranked high school football teams in Connecticut. His impact on the football program led to close involvement with Darien’s other elite athletic teams, including the nationally ranked men’s and women’s lacrosse programs. During his time with the programs, the men’s team has won 10 state championships and the women’s team 11. He has trained dozens of Division I lacrosse recruits who later became Under Armour All-Americans, NCAA national champions, and Major League Lacrosse stars.

John’s work across Darien athletics is widely respected throughout the community, but his dedication extends far beyond the school’s teams. With over 8 years of extensive clinical out-patient rehabilitation experience, John has developed a reputation for working with people who have sustained a variety of orthopedic injuries.
