I began in sales nearly 20 years ago. I then built my own company
in southern Florida. After a few years I sold the business and moved
back north to ski country...and returned to school. I had noticed that
the business world was becoming more and more reliant on computers.
With a head for math and logic, I pursued a degree in programming and
computer animation. I was recruited by KPMG Consulting while still in
graduate school and allowed myself to be wooed away to the DC offices
where I was a critical part of the technical management team, creating
an intranet portal for the company's employees. Since that time, I
have assisted several companies gain added prosperity through Internet
ventures by both developing and maintaining a wide range of web sites
and services.
Invited to assist with coaching high school athletes in 1998, I began
an association with the sport I had been exposed to my entire life.
With record-holders in the family, and having been a hurdler/jumper,
it was a natural fit. I have been fortunate enough to work with some
tremendous student-athletes while developing championship teams.
From Fauquier high school (1998-2005), through the Cayman Islands
(2005-2006), and on to Alcovy high school (2006-2010), I have been
able to pass along the valuable lessons I learned from sport.
Those who know me refer to me as a teacher, an athlete, a coach,
a geek, or some combination of these. I have always thought of it
simply as the ability to see patterns, and the relentless pursuit
of my goals.
