Hi everyone, just a little bit about me and my aspirations. Not only am I a die hard advocate for lifetime activities and fitness, but sports are where I truly found who I was going to be. I believe that sports and physical fitness can change the dynamic of young peoples lives. There are so many benefits of fitness and sports apart from the physical gains. The social aspect of athletes is unparalleled. When a group of people can put all of their efforts together to achieve a goal is one thing, but when you add that those people are pushing themselves past their breaking points physically at the same time, that is something special. Through my PE classes, kids learn a wide variety of skills to help transform themselves into active kids and to active adults throughout their lives. While I have coached four different sports in the last two years, baseball and football are where my passion lay. I believe that I have the leadership skills and the sport knowledge to change the lives of young people.
"A coach will impact more people in one year than an average person will in an entire lifetime." - Billy Graham
I firmly believe this and am willing to do whatever it takes to positively impact today's youth both on and off the field. I was once told that sports don't build character, they reveal it. I believe that I have the relate ability to reveal the best character that my players and students possess.
