My self-summary
In the words of Henry David Thoreau:

"“I went to the woods because I wanted to live deliberately, I wanted to live deep and suck out all the marrow of life, To put to rout all that was not life and not when I had come to die Discover that I had not lived.”

I am all about loving life and experiencing as much as I can while laughing and dancing along the ride.
What I’m doing with my life
After graduating from Princeton ('08) I started my own company (iSports) with my cousin. Our company was acquired in April '09 by NTN Buzztime. I worked for them for three years. I quit to pursue my passion: Basketball and teaching.

I'm currently a Girls Varsity Basketball Head Coach (I also coach the Frosh/Soph Team). I also have been coaching a youth boys team for the last two years (they are 11/12 years old now). I also train players individually (Youth, High School, College and Pro).

I'm going back to School in the Fall to get my Masters and Teaching Credential.

In my free time I read (a lot) and workout (love barefoot running on the beach).
I’m really good at
Basketball (played in college)
Writing (my trade/passion)
Bodysurfing
