I have been involved with USA boxing for over 25 years.

I started as an athlete competing in a local Salt Lake boxing gym and as I started going to college I transitioned over to coaching and was the head coach of Louie's. We had a lot of success building teams and athletes that competed at a high level of the sport. Not only did we help athletes attain their goals in boxing but also in life as many of the athletes I had the privilege to coach went on to be successful outside of the ring as parents, teachers, doctors, as well as serving our country in various divisions of the armed forces.

While coaching I transitioned to serving the Utah LBC as President for the last 8 years. This was only possible with the trust and support of our local gyms and coaches that put me in that position.

While on the board, we saw multiple levels of success. We had the most athletes in a long time in the state of Utah win and be ranked in the top of the national rankings as well as multiple national champions from the Golden Gloves to the USA nationals. I credit that success to team work and all the hard work put in by the athletes to reach their goals.

I studied at the University of Utah and graduated with a Bachelors in Mass communication and a minor in peace and conflict. Through my education I learned to work with people and on teams which I feel is an important part of leading an LBC and or any other leadership position in life.

I helped lead a team to open the new Broadway theater in downtown Salt Lake as I oversaw the production, hiring of staff and the annual budget of one million dollars. Once the theater was opened I continued to lead the production team in the theater as well as overseeing purchasing and the production budget. I have balanced and prepped budgets at work for the last 8 years.

I feel this experience I bring will help me be an asset for the Utah LBC whether as a treasurer or vice president. I am a team player and see that boxing is bigger then any one individual and I hope to just be a part of Utah future success in USA boxing.
