Tell Me About Your Story

I’ve been very fortunate in my life because I grew up in a coaching family. My father was a coach for 40+ years, so I’m definitely a beneficiary of his contacts in a lot of ways.

I learned at a very young age what excellence looked like. Watching a team and coaching staff work together to achieve their goals on a daily basis was really beneficial to me. As a coach now, I reach back to those moments often.

I’m also grateful to have people that have given up their time for me, especially those I haven’t worked with. Coach Holland, for example, would talk to me on the phone, get lunch with me, write a letter, and come watch me coach. 

When you have people that are caring like that it’s really helpful. Because others have done that for me, I’ve tried to do that as well. I think that’s the way it should be.
