I am pictured with two of my professors in the Exercise Science program, Kris Agena (left) and Brian Solberg (right) at Luther College's graduation Ceremony in 2024.
When I chose to study Exercise Science, my goal was clear: help athletes become the best version of themselves through preparation, accountability, and consistent daily habits. My experiences since then in my role working in admissions, coaching college basketball, and supporting athletic programs, have reinforced that at my core, I am driven by helping people achieve performance-based goals, both on and off the field.
My coaching experiences have strengthened my understanding of how detailed preparation, film study, and individualized feedback translate to team success. As a coach, I value the behind-the-scenes work that often goes unnoticed but directly impacts player development and game-day execution. I have learned the importance of breaking down information clearly, supporting position coaches, and helping athletes translate coaching points into actionable performance improvements.
The mentors who guided me throughout my collegiate experience played a pivotal role in shaping my approach to leadership and coaching. Their investment in my development taught me the value of trust, consistency, and servant leadership—principles I aim to model in my own work with athletes and coaching staffs.
Looking ahead, my goal is to continue developing as a football coach within the Exercise Science and human performance space. Whether supporting a college football program through film analysis, practice planning, strength and conditioning collaboration, or player development, I thrive in roles that demand attention to detail, adaptability, and a team-first mindset. I bring a strong work ethic, a growth-oriented approach, and a genuine commitment to helping players and programs maximize their potential.
