Coaching Philosophy
My coaching philosophy is that I believe everyone has the capability to succeed in every aspect of the sport. I always make sure my athletes know I will do everything in my power to make sure they reach their goals! I believe in promoting a positive environment where my players are empowered and not afraid to make mistakes. I believe in fostering an environment where accountability is a huge part of the team’s culture and always putting the team before yourself!

Most Memorable Sports Moment
My most memorable sports moment was winning the NE-10 conference championship during my freshman year of college at SCSU. We were the underdogs and going against the top teams in the conference. However, we outworked those top teams to win the conference title for the first time in program history and got a bid to the NCAA regional championship tournament.
