PHILOSOPHY
Volleyball and coaching are a give and take game. I relate it to Newton's law explaining every action has an opposite and equal reaction. What you put into the sport, or your players, you will receive back. I will expect my players to give their 100% every day as they should of me. This applies from effort on the court to respect.
WHAT I BRING TO THE GYM
I have my B.S. in Psychology from PSU and M.A. in International Peace and Conflict Resolution with a certification in mediation from Arcadia Univ. To say communication and problem solving are important to me is an understatement. I take my players' mental health as serious as their physically health. Having a strict coaching style can also be a supportive and positive experience as well.
WHEN I'M NOT COACHING VOLLEYBALL
I am a full time Supervision Officer for the Courts of Common Pleas of Allegheny Co.
SOMETHING YOU PROBABLY DON'T KNOW ABOUT ME
I have a cute orange cat named Rox and he is an only child.
