Summary
After 8 years of honorable service in the United States Navy & two deployments in support of Operation Inherent Resolve, I am eager to start my career in the basketball realm. After a combined 20 years of experience as a player & coach ranging from levels of youth to collegiate basketball, I am searching to find a program to bring my passion, knowledge, & love for the game to the structure & culture of a team. My time in the navy serves as a great foundational block for working with people from all walks of life & team building & development.
