I am thrilled to introduce myself as the new Head Rowing Coach at Utah Crew. My journey in rowing began at Temple University, where I earned the title of Freshman of the Year and proudly secured three medals at the Dad Vail National Championship as a heavyweight scholarship rower. Following my college career, I continued to hone my skills at Vesper Boat Club, achieving remarkable milestones including competing in the US Olympic Festival, winning two Elite National Championships, and bringing home a gold medal from the Pan American Games in Cuba—where I even had the unforgettable experience of meeting Fidel Castro!

With 27 years of coaching experience, I had the privilege of serving as the Head Men's and Women's Coach at Georgia Tech for 21 years. During this time, our teams earned 38 medals at the Dad Vail National Championships, four medals at the Head of the Charles, and three IRA medals. I’m particularly proud that five of my athletes made it onto the U.S. National Team for the World Championships.

Most recently, I held the position of Head Men's Coach at the Atlanta Juniors Rowing Association, where my athletes achieved significant success, including a medal at the Head of the Charles in the Men's Varsity 8+ and four consecutive medals at the Southeast Regional Championships.

Beyond rowing, I spent 31 years as a Physical Educator and Athletic Director at TCS in Atlanta. I am passionate about fostering a positive team culture and developing athletes both on and off the water.

On a personal note, I’m a proud husband and father of two recent college graduates from Kentucky and Georgia Southern. I look forward to bringing my experience and dedication to Utah Crew and helping our athletes reach their fullest potential!
