About Me
ABOUT ME
I love sports and going to sporting events. Right now I am trying very hard to learn more about soccer. It is the sport du jour.
PHILOSOPHY
"If I meet a hundred-year-old man and I have something to teach him, I will teach; if I meet an eight-year-old boy and he has something to teach me, I will learn" - Chao-Chou.
I work in higher ed because I love to learn & help others learn. In addition to working in athletics administration, I've also taught Sports Law and done several guest lectures.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
Coolest thing I've done: fly a plane over cloud cover during a sunset. The light dancing off the clouds was surreal.
