As long as I can remember I have always had a passion teaching kids. My first job was at 10 years old assisting my older brother coaching a 6-year-old AYSO team and I have not looked back since. I received my B.S. from San Francisco State University as well as my credential and my Masters in Coaching & Athletic Administration from Concordia University Irvine. I have been active in the field of education and recreation for 23 years, focusing on teaching physical education, early childhood development, coaching and non- profit organizations in the San Francisco/Bay Area, Santa Barbara, San Diego, and Maine areas. LASD has been my permanent home for the last 8 years and I couldn’t imagine working anywhere else or with such a supportive community. When I’m not working, I enjoy spending time with my wife and son at the beach, going on bike rides, and playing lots of golf and tennis!
