      • Aug 2018 - Jun 2022

      I was recruited by the Head of School and the Board to act as Interim Director based on my performance as an educator. My goal was to transform the department as it was struggling and we’d seen significant employee turnover. This led to my hire for the permanent role after a successful first year. In this position, I oversee program operations, strategic planning, scheduling, and logistics for 20 high school and 14 middle school sports teams. I collaborate with CIF Southern Section and Prep League on aligning athletics programs with association guidelines and requirements. I also recruit, hire, train, and supervise head and walk-on coaching staff, as well as maintain facilities, ensure compliance with safety standards and regulations, and contribute to policy development for handbooks. Notable Achievements: • Redefined our department mission, as well as re-established communication with parents and the Board of Trustees to engage with stakeholders in turning around low engagement and morale. • Spearheaded the redesign and transformation of our weight training facility to engage athletes and non-athletes in utilizing available resources onsite. • Administered our operating budget, including generating additional financial support via fundraising events and activities through partnerships with booster clubs Show less

      • Jun 2015 - May 2018

      I built this fitness facility from the ground up, directing daily operations and serving as Head Coach for diverse clientele. As Owner-Operator, I oversaw staffing and recruitment, client relations, budget administration, and marketing. I also negotiated agreements with individual clients and local teams, planning programs customized to their needs such as upcoming season workout preparation and coaching. Additionally, I monitored the use of exercise equipment and materials to ensure asset protection and safety of participants. Finally, I secured and maintained licensing, permits, and other approvals from regulatory bodies at the local, state, and federal levels. Notable Achievements: • Restructured the employee evaluation process to include employee feedback and discussion loops, which resulted in improved overall performance in all areas. • Taught group exercise classes based on the needs of enrolled students, which varied in complexity from strength training for non-athletes to fitness programs in support of other athletic coaching. • Consistently met or exceeded attendance goals for assigned fitness classes.
