MY MISSION

Is to empower women and give them the opportunity to succeed on and off the field.

I believe they are students first and athletes second. 

I run my softball program in a positive atmosphere and teach the players how to work hard to fulfill their goals.

Helping student athletes grow mentally and physically drives me each day to improve as a mentor.
