About Excellence In Process

Guiding Youth Sports Toward Growth, Connection, and Joy

At Excellence In Process, we believe youth sports are about more than winning games — they’re about building life skills, lasting friendships, and strong communities. Founded by Dr. Alec Baker, PsyD and Dr. Carly Ellman, PhD, our mission is to help youth sports organizations create healthier cultures where athletes, families, and coaches thrive together.

With backgrounds as athletes, coaches, therapists, and parents, Alec and Carly bring both professional expertise and lived experience to their work. Through research-driven workshops and consultations, they partner with clubs, teams, and families to strengthen communication, nurture development, and create lasting joy in sport.
