Summary
The strategic and technical aspects of sports help tackle physical and mental challenges that I could use during problematic situations. I am a perfectionist at heart, so my theory on how I execute and explain valuable performance is based on being consistent. I believe that consistency is excellence. Also, the ability to accept and continue to learn will make a long-term difference within your level of play and life. I'm a knowledgeable athlete and coach with wide range of contacts and experience identifying and securing top talent. Exceling at building rapport and relationships to serve team needs. I've been successful at coaching athletes and optimizing program operations. Works with players of different skills levels to develop talent, improve strength and enhance stamina for top gameplay. Versed in rules and winning strategies.
