I grew up in Grove City and graduated from Grove City High School in 2001. Played in Grove City as a kid and young adult. I had a real passion for making the soccer experience better than I had it. Playing soccer in the 1990’s, there were no goalkeeper coaches at the youth level. I had to learn everything on my own, reading books and watching games. Soccer practice was no fun, no one knew what do with the goalkeepers. I swore I was going to change that for everyone that wanted to be a goalkeeper after me.
