Fall 2026
I started playing sports in elementary and continued into high school. I played Soccer in Hong Kong, Baseball in Colorado, and Football in California. I was born in Fort Collins and my parents divorced when I was very young. I grew up living out of state in California, and out of country in the Netherlands and Hong Kong. I always traveled back to Colorado to visit when school was on break. I flew alone six times a year on 12 to 14 hour flights through elementary school. I moved seven times before graduating from Poudre High School and going on to CSU.
I found football in Elementary school and when we moved back to the United States, I went out for tackle. I started as center and right guard in middle school and left guard and on special teams in high school. I have always loved football. My first favorite team was the 49ers and then it became the Broncos. I used to go to Broncos training camp when it was in Greeley and I was able to get John Elways autograph. I was on the Broncos season ticket waiting list for 13 years and now have season tickets in the south end zone.
I have two kids, one in elementary and one in middle school. I am married and have been for 19 years. We have a cat and a dog and live in Fort Collins.
I have been coaching football for 8+ seasons.

My Purpose as a Coach.
