Profile
Played competitively for 10 years. Coaching since 1995. youth, MS, HS, College DII & DIII. Referee and private instructor. Assistant Director or Dynamite Lax

I played all 4 years at MU on the midfield and attacking side. I was a captain senior year. My major was Psychology, with a minor in Athletic Coaching. Right after that I was the assistant coach at MU, in charge of a JV squad and focused on the Varsity goalies. While there, I also earned my Masters degree in Sport Management.

Directly after that, I was the head coach at Widener University for 5 years, where we broke and tied several records.
After having my 2nd child I pulled back and coached HS at Perkiomen Valley HS in Collegeville, PA for 6 years. I then was looking for a new challenge/angle and began to officiate lacrosse at the youth and HS level. This is also when I began to help in the community and coach for our local youth organization. I was also recruited to coach for club teams. My first experience was with 380 Lacrosse, and then with Dynamite lacrosse. I coached for about 9 years with all HS level teams, and am now the Assistant Director or Dynamite. Amid all of this I also began to give private lessons. Some on my own time, and some through Laxevo in King of Prussia, PA.

I found myself missing the higher level of play, so I took a college position at Gwynedd- Mercy University. I was the head coach there for 2 years. Unfortunately this was only a P/T job, and I was going through a divorce. I had to quit and take a job with Aramark for awhile to get my financial feet under me.

I am now working at Longstreth, as the Lacrosse Manager. I get to talk lacrosse all day long, and have great connections.
