MY STORY STARTED IN THE POOL PLAYING WATER POLO, IN THE MOUNTAINS SNOWBOARDING, AND ON THE SOCCER PITCH WITH MY BEST FRIENDS. MY PATH LED ME TO THE HALLS OF WESTERN AS A KINESIOLOGY STUDENT AND INTO A PHYSICAL THERAPY CLINIC AS A YOUNG EXERCISE SPECIALIST. I HAVE SPENT HOURS ON THE POOL DECK AND PITCH-SIDE COACHING YOUTH ATHLETES OF ALL AGES AND SKILL LEVELS. I HAVE PURSUED CERTIFICATIONS, ADDED TO MY SKILL SET AT WEEKEND COURSES, STUDIED ALONGSIDE MY PEERS, AND CREATED A CULTURE OF ACCOUNTABILITY AND POSITIVITY IN MY BUSINESS.

ULTIMATELY, I AM A HUSBAND, FATHER, SON, BROTHER, BUSINESS OWNER, COACH, ATHLETE, READER, DOG PERSON, LOVER OF THE OUTDOORS, AND GRATEFUL TO BE IN A POSITION TO HELP OTHERS. MENTORSHIP PLAYED A LARGE ROLE IN MY DEVELOPMENT AS A COACH, AND TODAY MY GOAL IS TO GIVE THAT BACK THROUGH BOTH MY WORK WITH ATHLETES AND AN UNDERGRADUATE INTERNSHIP PROGRAM.
