23 years of high school coaching. I've coached football, boys basketball, girls basketball, golf, tennis, and currently fast pitch softball. I even served 12 years as a high school athletic director. I am also currently a high school assistant principal. This is my second year as a basketball official and I love it. Many years ago as a younger man, I worked high school baseball for eight consecutive years before becoming a high school basketball head coach.

I've enjoyed every aspect of my career with high school athletics and I believe my varied experiences help me as both a coach and an official.

I think working both sides of the game (coaching and officiating) helps me with communication skills. I think I have a better approach toward officials when I'm coaching and a better approach toward coaches when I'm officiating.
