I just started this great journey at UTC to pass along the knowledge I have from 10 years working at Thornton Construction. I've been involved in coaching youth baseball and basketball during those years, including being the head baseball JV Coach and Assistant Varsity Coach at Old Town High School. I'm married with three boys, one of which I'm proud to say was UTC's Student of Year last year!
