  To date, I have built and sustained a competitive basketball program that has found on the court success while student-athletes experience growth and development that is beneficial in the classroom and beyond. Within the program, I install values such as sportsmanship, teamwork, and perseverance, essential to teams and players maximizing their potential. Team building starts with recruiting individuals with top-tier talent who are also leaders in the classroom and school community. I ensure that new and existing players come together to create bonds that can last a lifetime. I enhance the physical abilities and basketball knowledge of each athlete by suppling dedicated coaching. Along with player development, I put the team in the best position to win by leading preparation efforts, scouting opponents, creating line-ups, and designing strategies for optimal results. During games, I provide in-game coaching and adjustments, with strategies leading to more wins. Furthermore, team success is aided by the coaching staff I put in place. I also spearhead outreach efforts to garner greater team and athletic department support. I also audit players' academic records and verify that all are in good standing and meet elevated team standards. • From 2014 - 2017, the program recorded 19 total wins but the teams the following two seasons recorded at least 15 games, resulting in the program having the first back-to-back winning seasons in school history. • In 2018 -2019, the team reached the Sun Conference Championship Game, upsetting the conference's top team in the process. • In January of 2018, I was recognized with HoopDirt's "Coach of the Week" after leading the team to wins over two nationally-ranked opponents. • To date, coached three NAIA All-Americans, one NAIA National Player of the Week, six All-Conference Selections, one Conference All-Freshman Honoree, and four Conference Players of the Week. • Current record is 52-98.
