As a coach/youth developer I pride myself in being able to create strong interpersonal relationships with youth that help to inspire personal development and improvement in all aspects of life.

Experience 

 

2003-2009 

43Hoops Lead Trainer/Developer

I was the lead trainer that worked not only in developing the young athletes but also helping to develop the protocols, schedule/grouping systems, as well as developing the coaching staff.
 

2009 - 2015 

Fundamentally Sound Athletics Lead Trainer/Developer

Similar to the role that I had at 43Hoops, at FSA I was able to be more creative as I was now also in more control over the types of programs that we were able to offer. Working on the scheduling and planning side as much as the “boots on the ground” execution side of the business.
 

2015-2019 

YMCA Regional Sports Director/Sports Training Director

As the regional sports director I was in charge of overseeing 4-5 branches and providing indirect support in regards to staffing, budgets, planning/scheduling, communication and execution. During my time at the YMCA I was an integral part of the program’s rise from 2,000 sports participants to over 20,000 over a 4 year period. 
 

2020-Present 

Fundamentally Sound Athletics: Chief of Operations

As an owner and along with my business partner Thomas Chatman, we are responsible for all aspect of the planning, operation, and economic growth of Fundamentally Sound Athletics.
