My love for soccer has started in 1982. Then, I witnessed Paolo Rossi (Italy) defeating West Germany 3-1. He displayed to me the beauty of soccer. In 1986, I watched the artist Diego Maradona (Argentina) scored the “Hand of God” goal. He defeated Germany 3-2. I’ve played soccer all my life. I assisted other coaches, and coached adult and kids. All my kids play soccer and I’ve coached all of them. It is so much fun.
My Favorite Team of all times is the Inter Milan. Now, it is FC Bayern Munich and the Portland Timbers. Hoping they never play against each other. There is no need to test my loyalty. You will find me online blogging, tweeting about major soccer Cups or the Timbers, if I am not in the Army section during a game. I enjoy watching, and coaching soccer. We have some great kids in Sherwood with so much potential. It is an honor to coach and watch them flourish.

My family and I moved to Oregon in 2013, fell in love with Sherwood and hope to never leave. Soccer has been my passion since I was a child and I played all growing up. I have 3 boys and have been coaching multiple soccer and basketball teams since my oldest was 4 and now help with the Sherwood wrestling program as well. I love being a part of this community through sports, church, and work. It is hard to express the joy that comes from coaching the youth in Sherwood. I have developed many great relationships with the parents and boys over the years and still get a “Hi Coach” from boys on my team years ago. I view the players as my own kids and strive to teach them respect, discipline, and the ability to push themselves beyond what they believe they can do. There is nothing greater than watching them learn and grow and to see the pride in their eyes when they recognize what they have accomplished. I am excited to work with this great group of volunteers to help our soccer program continue growing and help make it the place to play in our community.

I have 4 kids, all who have played soccer with Sherwood Soccer Club at one time or another in their life. Over 10 years ago I became involved with the Club when my children were little as a way to participate in the community and in something that my kids enjoyed doing. Our youngest still participates in the Spring Indoor Rec season and has a blast. Through the club I have met so many wonderful people; coaches, board members, and players. I truly enjoy being part of the Sherwood Soccer board.
