16u Red Storm Rebels Head Coach

 Proud Husband, Father, and Coach. I believe God has a purpose in everyone's life and He uses those around us to help us navigate life to find our purpose.  I've been playing/coaching the game of basketball for 34 years. The lessons and experiences from the game were key to any successes I've had in life and in my career endeavors. The hope that other young men can experience that same success or surpass it is what inspires me to coach. The goal is to help young men be successful in life not just basketball and I'm thankful for the opportunity to influence that through coaching.
