As a starting pitcher at Eastern Connecticut State University (D3, top 10 in the country 1996-1997) and Radford University (D1), I was invited to a workout with Fortitudo Baseball in Bologna, Italy. During this tournament, I pitched a 7-inning no-hitter with 17 strikeouts and 3 walks, earning an immediate contract offer and marking the beginning of my professional baseball career. From 2001 to 2013, I had the privilege of playing 13 years with Fortitudo Bologna, where I transitioned to the role of closer due to the team's veteran starting pitching staff. Embracing this role, I never looked back. During my tenure, we secured three Italian championships and three European championships, and we had the honor of being the first European team invited to the Asia Series in Taiwan in 2013. Our team was voted the best in Europe, a testament to our hard work and dedication. I was named to the All-Star team three times and earned the title of Top Reliever of the League on three occasions. I still hold the record as Fortitudo's All-Time Saves Leader and finished my career just three saves shy of the all-time record in Italian baseball history. From 2001 to 2007, I was honored to represent Team Italy on the National Level, competing in prestigious international tournaments such as the 2001 World Cup of Baseball in Taiwan, the 2004 Olympic Games in Athens, Greece, and the 2006 Inaugural World Baseball Classic. After retiring in 2013, I moved to Chicago and transitioned into coaching, providing private lessons across the Chicagoland area. I worked with aspiring athletes on pitching and hitting and consulted with teams on their practice routines and game strategies. I had the pleasure of coaching for several organizations, including Glenview Blaze, Diamond Dawgz, and Stoppers Baseball Academy travel programs. In 2021, I relocated to Colorado, where I joined USA Prime Colorado as a coach for their high school-level summer and fall teams. I conducted lessons at the Khaos Clubhouse in Littleton, Colorado during this time. I joined Lutheran High School as their varsity pitching coach. A year later, I joined the coaching staff at Colorado Christian University (D2) as a volunteer pitching coach. In June of 2024, my wife and I settled in Bloomfield, New Jersey, where I continue to pursue my passion for coaching and mentoring young athletes. Currently am the Pitching coach for Bloomfield College of Montclair State University (D2).

For over two decades, I've cultivated a love for baseball in athletes of all levels. My passion is helping players unlock their full potential on the field. I am eager to help you refine your skills and strategy!

For a quarter-century, I've had the privilege of sharing my passion for football and nurturing aspiring athletes. My coaching philosophy emphasizes tactical mastery alongside individual player development in a fun, supportive environment. Anything worth having is both difficult and requires commitment. With that being said, I will challenge you to be the best you can be at all times. I WILL BE TOUGH ON YOU, but YOU WILL THANK ME LATER!

"After my senior season in high school, I was not heavily recruited and getting a scholarship was n uphill battle. I decided to work with coach initially on speed but as time went on we started to work on agility and football drills. During these sessions, I was improving physically and mentally enough that I was able to earn a post grad year where I ultimately earned a scholarship to Colombia University. I know for certain that without Coach’s dedication, energy and guidance, I wouldn’t be where I’m at today.

Mastering the gridiron takes dedication, strategy, and a love for the game. With 20 years of experience, I'm dedicated to fostering a fun, challenging environment where athletes at any level can unlock their full potential. Let's hit the field and build your winning strategy.
