My wife Lauren and I have two amazing sons who have benefitted from the Defenders organization. We are west siders and I have worked for Textron Aviation (Cessna) for the last 25 years. I played soccer from an early age through high school until injuries forced me to give up actively playing. At that time, I switched to coaching as I have a love for the game and the skills it teaches. I have coached for several organizations at many age levels, and I am a FIFA certified referee (non-active). I am blessed to be a part of an organization that truly strives to help develop our children into Godly men and woman.
