This is my 3rd year coaching with the Lightning program.  I’ve coached football for the past 18 years, including 14 as the head coach at Avon North Middle School. I have been teaching for 21 years. I’ve spent the entirety of my adult life working with children and I truly have a passion for it.

As a player: I played baseball for 15 years, I was All-Conference my senior year, Team MVP, and Hoosier Diamond Magazine selected me as 2nd Team All-State. I was in the top 10 all time in doubles in school history. My senior year I was selected for “setting a good example” award for my football team and I was my teams 3rd leading tackler. I was a 2-year letter winner at Warren Central High School for football and 3-year for baseball.
