What makes you different from others in your field? What makes me different from others in my field is that I have playing experience at two different universities’ that are very different from each other. One was a large state school and one was a small private institution. I transferred midway through my career to the small private institution, Creighton University. For recruiting purposes, my college career was very unique and it is now easy to put myself in the shoes of the young adults that I will be recruiting some day. I was exposed to the pros and cons of two different types of schools and I feel like my experience will help me to separate from others in the coaching job field.

 

Other fun facts:
