Sports have always been a crucial part of my life. From little league baseball to Ironman Triathlons, sports have helped in shaping me into the person I am today. My purpose in writing the Principles of Ethical Youth Coaching is to provide coaches with the tools to maximize the benefits young athletes receive from their participation in sports.
I received my BA in Psychology from the University of Chicago in 2005, and I am currently pursuing my JD at Loyola University Chicago Law School. I played baseball competitively through high school and ran Cross Country. Upon entering college, I decided to focus on marathon running and triathlons. I have completed 20 marathons and 4 Ironman triathlons. In addition to serving as Executive Director of the Center for Ethical Youth Coaching, I have also been the Executive Director of The International Sports Professionals Association (ISPA) since 2008. I have previously coached triathletes of all ages and levels and little league baseball players. I am married and we our expecting our first child in November of 2011.
