Hobbies
I have nearly 20 years of experience of coaching youth and high school sports. I have been voted the CHSAA League Coach of the Year in 2012. I started a high school varsity lacrosse program from scratch; going 1-13 our first year to winning the conference championship in 4 short years. I understand how to create an environment of high achievement for my students. I also have some very practical experience with students - my daughter is a junior in college studying Biology and my son is a sophomore, majoring in Computer Engineering. When not coaching lacrosse I enjoy spending time with my children, swimming, kayaking, fishing, photography, staying physically fit, culinary adventures, and 'chef-ing' it up in the kitchen.
