Why I Coach
Early on a coach showed me I could be anything I wanted to be through athletics and I promised I’d return the favor. I have an unending respect for athletes who choose to do the work, who are determined to change their world and the expectations of those around them. I want to teach athletes commitment to personal/team excellence, will to win, grace in victory and defeat and the translation of being an athlete and sportsperson to the world around them.
