have been a coach with Elk Grove Soccer since 2002, and have been an administrator in the club since 2003.   I have served as first vice president for the past 10 years.   I currently coach 3 teams in the club– 2008G Platinum, 2010G Platinum, and HSG Fuego, in addition to coaching Monterey Trail High School girls.   I have been a referee for about 15 years as well.   I am dedicated to making sure all kids in our community have an opportunity to play soccer no matter what their skill level is, or family/financial constraints are.   I coached all 3 of my children in the club, and my son has been a referee and coach in the club as well.

When not doing soccer, I am the 6am Producer for KCRA TV, where I have worked since 1998.

I have been a coach with Elk Grove Soccer since 2017. My eldest son has played on the recreation and competitive side. My two daughters have both played recreation. I’ve coached all of them. Before joining EGYSL, I coached and helped out at Greenhaven Soccer Club and volunteered for the YMCA’s youth soccer program. Soccer has been a huge part of my life since I was 5 years old. It played a huge role in my becoming who I am today, and I love the fact that I get to share my passion for the sport with players and parents in our community. I love to play still, but these days I get the most enjoyment out of watching young players develop, figure the game out, and fall in love with the game that I’ve loved for well over 30 years.

When I’m not coaching or watching soccer, I’m probably watching other sports, ha! I am still very much a kid, so I enjoy video games, being lazy, and riding around town on my motorcycle.
