I lived most of my youth in Missouri playing everything from football, wrestling, track, cross country, to basketball and baseball.

Later I spent a decade as an ice hockey goalie, transitioned into coaching youth ice hockey for a couple years, as well as supported Russell Stover Hockey for an additional three or four years on and off the ice.

My involvement in lacrosse has grown organically over the past number of years through my kids and last year I served as the assistant coach for the Olathe 7/8 team.
