Im
I'm Eric, the founder of NextLevel Elite Performance & Nutrition and a Sports Dietitian who helps athletes and active individuals fuel for performance, recovery, and long-term success.
I currently work with professional baseball players and have been for over 5 years, along with competitive athletes at every level- from high school athletes to those preparing for the next stage of their sport. I also support active individuals who want more energy, consistency, and confidence in both training and daily life.
As a competitive CrossFit and Hyrox athlete along with being a former professional bodybuilder, I understand firsthand what it takes to train hard, prepare for competition, and sustain performance over time. My coaching approach focuses on structured, sustainable fueling strategies that fit real life without any extremes , or short term fixes.
My mission is simple: to provide the structure, education, and support you need to fuel consistently, perform confidently, and keep progressing with purpose.
