About

70% of kids quit youth sports by the age of 13. And 80% of the kids who quit stop all forms of exercise after quitting. The number 1 reason they quit? They don’t think it’s fun. I’m on a mission to make sports fun and keep kids active. Through Sportlingo, I am actively working with youth sports coaches to help them create fun lesson packs for their team to complete. Coaches can make lesson packs at any difficulty level, from beginner through expert. In my previous experiences, I have successfully managed and increased profits for multi-million-dollar brands in many industries. I specialize in product innovation, strategic growth, and creating impactful solutions that enhance user experiences. With a strong foundation and a commitment to continuously expanding my knowledge in customer experience, AI, startups, and team leadership, I bring the insight and vision necessary to deliver results. My experience spans a range of sectors, including consumer products, SaaS, e-commerce, sports technology, and mobile applications. Happy to chat about ways to increase youth health, building startups, or anything sports related—football, baseball, basketball, soccer, hockey, running, golf, tennis
