My name is Alec Noé, and I’m a strength and conditioning coach, educator, and lifelong student of human development. I hold a B.S. in Applied Exercise Science from Springfield College and am currently pursuing an M.S. in Strength and Conditioning at Loughborough University. My journey has taken me through coaching, leadership, and academic roles in diverse settings—from underserved youth in Montana to professional athletes in New Jersey.
I’ve led athlete development programs, collaborated with physical therapists in post-rehab training, taught social-emotional learning in the classroom, and worked as a research assistant in applied sport psychology. Whether I'm coaching in a performance setting, managing a school athletic department, or mentoring students, I approach each opportunity with empathy, intention, and a long-term mindset.
I believe performance coaching is ultimately about people—not just achievment. My goal is to help athletes grow into confident, resilient, and thoughtful individuals through systems that integrate physical, psychological, and cultural development. I aspire to lead in environments where coaching, education, and character formation converge.
