Coaching History:

• Colorado Rush, Eastside FC, Seattle Wolves, WA EPD.

• 2014 USYS State, Region IV and National Girls Competitive Coach of the Year.

• PacNW Coach since 2016.

• Prior to becoming the Director of the Junior Program, I was the Assistant Director of Coaching for the boys and girls U13 and U14 age groups.

Coaching Philosophy: I believe in the PacNW style of play: Technical players who are attack minded who try to solve problems all over the field. I want to accomplish this while also helping the players have fun and develop off the field. I want to help kids become better soccer players but more importantly better people. John Wooden’s college coach, Piggy Lambert summed it up best when he was asked at the end of a particular season how he did as a coach that year. He replied, “Ask me in 20 years and we’ll see how successful these boys are. Then I’ll be able to tell you if I succeeded as a coach.”

Personal Note: When not on the soccer field, I love spending time with my wife Megan and my two kids: Claire and Adam.
