I have been playing baseball since I was 5 and have never stopped loving the game since starting. I played baseball all thw way up through high school where I then focused on college. While in college at Kent State Univerity i found my passion and love for coaching. I started coaching for a travel baseball organization named the DiamondBoys based out of Hudson, OH. While there I was the 16U assistant coach, 10U Blue Head Coach, and 10U White Team Fall Ball coach. After moving back to Columbus, I coached Two Years as one of the Black Hat Division Head Baseball Coaches for the WYBSL. I then coached Two seasons as the Head JV Coach at Cardington

I love to connect with students and build a relationship. I learn how to teach them through relationship building, and this trust helps them be a more committed and attentive student. I love encourging students to learn in their own way. Different methods and practices, different speeds. I love how I can connect with a student and build a relationship, this helps our trust so we can keep learning.

I have over 35 years of experience in the aquatic industry. Instructing and coaching swimmers and divers of all ages. Main goal is comfort and efficiency. Teaching someone new skills is my reward.
