Luis Fernando Llosa is a Peruvian-Ukrainian American writer, editor, speaker, investigative reporter, documentarian, youth sports consultant and full time father-coach.

His first book, Beyond Winning: Smart Parenting in a Toxic Sports Environment (Lyons Press), co-authored with Kim John Payne (Simplicity Parenting) and Scott B. Lancaster (former National Football League youth sports director), is a candid, practical guide to help parents navigate the fanatical, results-obsessed world of youth sports.

His second book, award winning Emotionally Resilient Tweens and Teens: Empowering Your Child to Navigate Bullying, Teasing and Social Exclusion, was co-written with Kim John Payne (Shambhala Press) and a third on youth sports is currently in development.

Youth sports has been a primary passion for Llosa, who has coached soccer for twenty-five years, and humbly acknowledges he knows little and has mucho to learn. He co-founded Whole Child Sports, an organization which aims to help develop a healthier, more creative youth sports experience for kids across America.

He lives with his talented, beautiful wife and five children in New York City.
