Scottsbluff Public Schools - Every Child, Every Day
I am passionate about helping student-athletes develop the strength, discipline, and confidence they need to succeed both in competition and in life.
I am entering my third year teaching in Scottsbluff Public Schools, where I serve as the strength and conditioning coach for Bearcat athletes. My primary role is developing and implementing in-season strength programs, along with running the morning weight room from 6:15 to 7:15 a.m. for student-athletes who are not enrolled in a lifting class.
My teaching schedule includes working at ReConnect in the mornings, followed by two classes at Bluffs Middle School and two periods of Advanced Strength and Conditioning at Scottsbluff High School. In addition to my work in the classroom and weight room, I also coach football and wrestling.
Before joining Scottsbluff, I spent 15 years coaching at the collegiate level, specializing in strength and athletic performance as well as coaching football football. I earned my Bachelor of Arts in History from the University of Montana Western and my Master of Science in Kinesiology from Southern Arkansas University.
