To me, academics and athletics go hand and hand. I am a firm believer that sports teach children real world skills that will carry with them through adulthood. Athletes are challenged how to make sacrifices, how to work as a team, how to overcome defeat and most importantly how to persevere.

 

As a former college rower and life-long athlete, I decided to take on coaching after college. In the same way that I foster a love of learning in my classroom, I strive to foster a love for athletics in my athletes. 

 

While I push my athletes mentally, physically and tecnically, I like to have fun along the way. I want my athletes showing up to practice excited and walking away from practice feeling accomplished.

 

Whether they are a novice or a master, I hope most of all to have enstilled a love for the sport in each of my rowers.
