As a Physical Education and Health Teacher and Volunteer Assistant Varsity Basketball Coach, I deliver standards-based instruction that promotes physical fitness, health literacy, and overall student wellness while fostering a safe, structured, and inclusive learning environment. I design engaging lessons, assess student progress through performance-based evaluations, and integrate social-emotional learning and character development into daily instruction. In my role as Assistant Varsity Basketball Coach, I assist with planning and leading practices, developing skill-focused training sessions, preparing game strategies, and supporting scouting and film breakdown. I mentor student-athletes in leadership, accountability, teamwork, and sportsmanship, while reinforcing academic responsibility and contributing to a positive, disciplined program culture focused on growth both on and off the court.

As a Sales Associate at Under Armour, I developed strong communication, leadership, and teamwork skills that directly translate to a Middle School PE Teacher and Coach position. I regularly educated customers on athletic performance apparel and equipment, explaining how products supported training, conditioning, and injury prevention—skills that align with teaching students about proper preparation, safety, and performance in physical activity. Working in a fast-paced, team-oriented environment strengthened my ability to collaborate, stay organized, and adapt quickly, which is essential when managing PE classes and athletic teams. Additionally, I built positive relationships with athletes and families, modeling professionalism and reinforcing values such as discipline, accountability, and performance excellence—qualities I now emphasize in developing student-athletes both in the classroom and on the court.
