I played high school soccer at Hamilton High School West in New Jersey and have continued my involvement
in the game through recreational coaching, middle school coaching, and assisting with adult Sunday League
soccer.
My partner and I have six kids and two beautiful granddaughters, so life is always busy. Our oldest
daughter has a home of her own just six minutes down the road, keeping our growing family close. Our
family also includes Woodland High School students and graduates, twin sophomore boys who share my passion
for soccer and compete at the N1 semi-professional level, and our youngest, who is in sixth grade.
My partner works in accounting, while I work as a production lead in the remanufacturing and rebuilding
of petroleum parts. After work, you'll usually find me coaching, driving to practices, watching one of the
kids play, or at home watching soccer. If you see me and the twins, there's probably a soccer ball at our
feet.
Most weekends are spent on a soccer field. When we're not playing soccer, our family loves being on the
lake fishing, tubing, and wakeboarding, and we try to attend church together on Sundays.
As both a coach and a parent, I understand the commitment families make to youth sports. My goal is to
create an academy where players can work hard, make mistakes, learn, develop, and discover just how far
their passion and determination can take them.
