Coaching Background
I have been coaching at Chicago Rush since 2016 and Chicago Rush Fox Valley since 2018. My favorite part of coaching is not only helping each player grow technically and tactically; but helping them grow off the field into the person they want to become!
Playing Background
I played club soccer with FCX and College Soccer at Trinity International University (2014-2017).

Why Do I Coach Soccer?
Having grown up with the sport of soccer since the age of 2, soccer has been a huge passion of mine for a long time. Ever since I started coaching in 2003, I've enjoyed helping developing players improve with a goal of getting the best out of every player I coach.
