I have been around sports my entire life. I spent part of my childhood overseas playing soccer and basketball primarily through grade school but fell in love with volleyball in high school and dedicated myself to the sport year-round. From there, I attended Indiana University as a student and competed on the Men’s Club Volleyball Team for 4 years, even coaching it for 2 years. My junior year we ended up 5th out of 150 universities at the National Tournament. I graduated from Indiana University after 4 years with a Sport Marketing & Management major. I love all things Hoosier and spent as much time as possible going to different games while I was there, as well as working for the Indiana Ticket Office.

In addition to my volleyball experience, I love to play golf in my free time and watch the Premier League. I am fascinated by all sports, and that makes working for NCSA great, because I get to talk and be around sports all day. Getting to help young athletes achieve their goals and dreams is something that I am passionate about and am looking forward to! I also thrive working in a team environment and NCSA has a great atmosphere for that. It is great being able to learn from and help coworkers that have the same goal as myself of helping families navigate the recruiting process.
Currently, I am living in Chicago with my fiancée trying to explore all the culinary experiences the city has to offer as well as travelling as often as possible.
