I joined the NCSA team in 2018 because I wanted to utilize my experience in athletics & passion for sports in an effort to help student-athletes achieve their full potential in their athletic careers. From leadership and accountability, to the lifelong relationships formed with teammates, I’m a huge advocate for the positive influence college sports have on young men & women. As a former collegiate student-athlete and NCAA coach, I understand how competitive the recruiting landscape is. I strive to utilize my personal experiences and recruiting expertise to provide student-athletes and their families with the best possible opportunity to achieve their dreams.

I grew up in the Texas Hill Country where like most in that area, football was my greatest passion. As long as I can remember, my lifelong dream growing up was to play ball in college. In high school, I played quarterback and wide receiver at Kerrville Tivy, a school widely known in the area for excellence in football. I was able to garner enough interest from schools to eventually receive multiple offers to play at the next level. I choose to accept a scholarship to play at The University of The Incarnate Word, a Division 1-AA school in San Antonio. 

Now, I reside with my wife Caitlin & daughter Hayden in The Woodlands, Texas just north of Houston. Aside from hanging out with my family, I enjoy golf, being outdoors, & watching sports.
