Hello! I hail from the charming town of Topsham, Maine, and proudly graduated from the University of Maine at Machias with a degree in Education. During my time at UMaine, I not only immersed myself in my studies but also played soccer and delved into coaching.
Currently, I am the head coach for the South Portland High School Girls Varsity soccer team—GO RIOTS! Additionally, I coach the 7th and 8th-grade boys' basketball expansion team at the Middle School—GO SHARKS! Exciting news—my wife and I had our first child in March! Olin is amazing!
When I'm not on the field, you can find me enjoying various hobbies. I'm an avid disc golf player, and I love reading, particularly immersing myself in the fantastical worlds of the Dune series and the Harry Potter books. As a fan of epic tales, I also enjoy watching The Lord of the Rings and Star Wars films, with Ted Lasso being one of my favorite shows.
I have a passion for strategic games and often spend my free time playing board games, video games, and card games. Some of my favorites include Risk, Civilization, and Magic: The Gathering. I also love outdoor activities, especially boating and exploring new islands and lakes.
In addition, I have two brothers and enjoy collecting Funko Pops of my favorite characters and franchises.
I'm excited to share my journey with you and look forward to inspiring the next generation of learners!
