I have played soccer since the age of five, beginning with TCYS and continuing through high school at Sonora High and Summerville Varsity. Over the years, I played multiple positions across the field before finding my true passion as a goalkeeper—making the position my first year at Sonora High and playing it ever since. That experience has given me a strong understanding of the game from all areas of the field.
In 2004, I joined the U.S. Air Force, where soccer remained a constant. I played in local leagues in New Mexico, participated in international pickup matches during a TDY to Jordan, competed in a futsal league in England from 2007–2010, and played Air Force intramural soccer. These experiences reinforced my belief that soccer is a universal language that brings people together across cultures.
I have been a TCYS coach since 2022 and currently serve as a TCYS Board Member (2025–present) as Referee Director and Adult League Director. Coaching—especially my own children—has been incredibly rewarding and allows me to pass on my love for the game to the next generation.
Coaching Philosophy
My coaching philosophy focuses on player development, teamwork, and respect for the game. I emphasize strong fundamentals, smart decision-making, and accountability while creating a positive environment where players are encouraged to learn, compete, and enjoy the game. My goal is for every player to grow in confidence, skill, and character—on and off the field.
