Coaching

After I wrapped up my collegiate playing career at the University of Cincinnati, I looked for a way to stay involved with the sport that I grew up loving. In December of 2019, I transitioned from a full time graphic design position at Team Fitz Graphics to the role of Director of Youth Development for Ohio Premier Volleyball Club. I helped to create and lead programs for male and female players age 3-18 and ensured that each age group learned the proper fundamentals of passing, setting, blocking serving and hitting. I attribute much of my work ethic today to what I learned from my coaches as a player, and it has been extremely gratifying to pay it forward so that younger athletes can have some of the same opportunities that volleyball has afforded me.
