About Me
Coaching has been my passion after competing in NCAA college athletics myself. Giving back to each athlete that comes through a program is the most rewarding aspect. Athletes come to run fast, but leave gaining additional life skills.
Why I’m At MaryThe community was extremely welcoming, and it felt like home right away.
Expertise
I have coached at the NCAA Division I and Division II levels. I have also coached in Junior College and have coached in five regions now.
