Athletics has been a huge part of my education in life.  Both of my parents were high school swimmers, mother continued on to college, and together they worked in the pool and spa industry.  Naturally, I have been in the water my entire life.  

The lessons learned through self-determination, teamwork, achieving goals, and responsibility to a team are all born from my athletic experience.  It is this experience that I draw from as a coach and mentor to student athletes.

Upon changing careers due to the COVID-19 lockdown in 2020 I returned to what I know best, the water.  I was fortunate through connections to find a school searching for a water polo assistant coach and with-in one year was pround to be named the Head Swim Coach at Orange Lutheran High School in Orange, CA

With a great group of kids over two years we were fortunate to break over 7 school records and watch the Boy's and Girl's water polo teams capture CIF championships in 2022 and 2023.  To be a part of their growth has been a privilege and an honor.
