In my career, I've had the opportunity to work with esports programs in various capacities, ranging from teaching and coaching to directorial roles. My journey as the Director of Esports at Hendrix College (2019 - 2024), I conceptualized and executed all visual branding elements for the program while forging strategic partnerships with leading brands such as Adidas, Logitech, TruService, and MSI. This allowed us to secure significant sponsorships and resources, ensuring the team's success.

Under my leadership, our esports teams achieved nine NCAA Metals, securing all titles within the Southern College Athletic Conference (SCAC). I also pioneered exceptional recruitment strategies that consistently attracted top talent to our program. In addition to my work at Hendrix, I served as both the AP Teacher and Director of Esports at Lake Hamilton High School (2018-2019), where I fostered a culture of excellence, collaboration, and sportsmanship among over 160 student-athletes.

I leveraged digital content design for targeted marketing initiatives and resource acquisition during my time at Lake Hamilton, which led to the school winning two HSEL National Titles. My passion for esports extended to West Memphis High School (2017-2018), where I secured technology integration grants, developed innovative curricula, and pioneered the integration of esports into the educational landscape of Arkansas. Through these efforts, esports became a recognized extracurricular activity within the school system during my tenure.

Throughout my career, I've been a skilled coach and mentor, having led and mentored thousands of student-athletes at various institutions through hosting the AAA State Championships for five years and board positions. I cultivate a dynamic social media presence, ensure effective goal alignment, performance tracking, challenge addressing, and continuous improvement for all esports programs I oversee. With my deep understanding of esports and its integration within educational environments, combined with my multifaceted skill set in design, digital marketing, and coaching, I am confident in my ability to contribute positively to the growth and success of any esports initiative at every level.
