I grew up in a small town of Peru, Illinois located just outside of the Chicagoland area. Growing up in a small town I was surrounded by a close-knit community that fostered a strong sense of belonging and connection. I played football growing up and I also enjoy bowling in my downtime.
After graduating LaSalle-Peru Township High School, I took the next step and enrolled at Eastern Illinois University. I obtained my Bachelors while majoring in Kinesiology and Sports Studies with a Minor in Business Administration. Focusing on my collegiate career was a lifechanging experience that has enriched my life in ways I never imagined.
My love for sports quickly transitioned into a career path. Over the years, I have worked in various roles in the industry, including front office and operation roles spanning across four out of the five major professional American sports leagues. These experiences have taught me invaluable lessons and insights that I carry with me throughout my personal and professional life.
My favorite part about working as a Recruiting Coordinator at NCSA is being able to guide young athletes through the recruiting process. I love sharing my experiences and insights to help them achieve their dreams, whether that means playing at the collegiate level, finding the right fit for their academic goals, or finding potential in themselves. I am honored to play a part on their journey.
