My Why

I am grateful that I had a positive mentor while playing lacrosse growing up in Summit, NJ. I remember when I first learned some of the basics of the sport, and how challenging it was in the beginning. Over time I started to grasp the fundamentals with repetition, hard work and help from my mentor. In hindsight I realize how important it was to have a positive influence in my life, while learning this sport. 

 

I believe that my parents and coaches taught me valuable life lessons over the years, which has helped to shape me into who I am today. I always knew that I would give back in some capacity what was instilled in me by these mentors in my life. I feel fortunate to be able to share my experience with you.

 

I've developed life long friendships while being apart of the lacrosse community, which has taught me the importance of teamwork, working together and perservering through adversity. 

 

My goal is to give back what I have learned through the years, teaching student-athletes the fundamentals of lacrosse. Part of this experience will include life lessons that naturally comes from being apart of a team sport.

 

This will allow for student-athletes to learn in a positive environment the benefits of working together, while becoming the best version of themselves.
