A Bit About Me
Teaching runs in my blood. My Mother was an English teacher for 30 years in the New Jersey Public School System, while I might not be in the classroom the passion for instructing and helping others learn is deeply engrained in me.
​
I'm originally from Pennsylvania and have always loved the outdoors. Having graduated from Penn State with a bachelor in Information Science & Technology, as well as, Security Risk Analysis, my journey took me into the realm of technology, working as a developer for Penn Medicine, then as a drone pilot and then eventually landing in the Digital Marketing space. While at Penn State I played Lacrosse (both varsity and club) and once my playing days were over immediately went into coaching. However, I found my true passion lies in the mountains, where I found myself drawn to the world of snowboarding and instructing. Combining my coaching background and love for the outdoors, I brings a unique perspective to my snowboarding instruction. With a diverse range of coaching experience, including lacrosse, basketball, and baseball for various age groups (4-19 yrs), I have developed a knack for effectively teaching and motivating individuals of all ages and skill levels. As an Eagle Scout, I was taught the values of leadership, perseverance, and creativity, which I brings to each and every lesson. Give me a call to schedule a lesson. Can't wait to see you out on the mountain!
