About

Alex Allen—known as ‘Train’—is a performance coach and storyteller from Youngstown, Ohio—and a law-enforcement sergeant. He equips teams, companies, schools, and communities with practical systems for resilience, culture, and results.

Alex partners with high-school programs, founders, and executive teams; hosts PHAS3 clinics; and builds creative series like Grave Robbers and Static in the Shadows that help people confront doubt and reclaim purpose. As a sergeant in law enforcement for, he’s led people in high-stakes moments where clarity, empathy, and de-escalation matter. That experience informs his coaching—blending evidence-backed tools, leadership psychology, and values-driven motivation—so audiences leave with practical frameworks they can use on the field, in the boardroom, or in the classroom.

  • Schools & districts: assemblies, staff PD, student leadership

  • Teams & clubs: culture, communication, pressure management

  • Companies & founders: offsites, all-hands, leadership workshops

  • Communities & nonprofits: purpose, resilience, practical hope
