Retired Air Force Officer with 15 years football coaching experience. Last 7 years have been at the high school JV and Varsity level. My expertise is strength and conditioning with specialty training for quarterbacks, kickers and punters. Lastly, my extensive and current background in emergency and trauma nursing enables me to serve primarily as the team medic/trainer. It has been great to watch both of my sons progress through the Vanden football program and become Vikings for life.
