Summary
As a coach, my goal is to challenge each player to become better leaders and men on and off the field. To accomplish this, I exemplify leadership by consistently upholding values such as grit, integrity, and accountability. I use my experience as a former stand out safety at Nevada to connect with current players and use the skills I've gained over the last two years to learn their strengths and use those to develop their skills.
