COACHING PHILOSOPHY:
BIO:
I am 46 years old and my wife, Laura, and I live in New Berlin. I attended Marquette University and obtained a Finance degree. My career for the past 13 years has been as a consultant in the employee benefits industry.
PLAY EXPERIENCE:
While I have played basketball my entire life, I played intramurals in high school and college.
COACHING EXPERIENCE:
I coached at Holy Apostles grade school for eight years prior to moving on to high school hoops. My start at the next level was assisting Dean Bellanti at Catholic Memorial High School on his varsity staff for four years. After that, I took a JV boys’ head coaching position at West Allis Hale prior to my current position with Greenfield. I am entering my third season as a Hustlin’ Hawk.
RECORD AT GHS:
18-24
OVERALL RECORD:
31 – 57 as JV Head Coach and 1 – 0 as Varsity Head Coach
SOURCE OF INSPIRATION (person, quote, event, etc.):
My Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ, is the source of my strength and hope. My Faith forms the foundation of my life and is what encourages me to improve who I am daily. Additionally, my Dad, who passed away September 8, 2018, and my Mom have been and will continue to be my heroes in this world. They have always been people of courage, depthless love and fierce loyalty to their family. My wife manifests love and courage in everything she does. She is a testament to the Bible verse stating that when a man finds a wife he finds a good thing.
FAVORITE ASPECT OF COACHING THE HUSTLIN HAWKS:
I continue to learn a lot each year from the rest of the coaching staff and the kids I coach – not only about basketball, but about life and self-improvement. Coach Jaskulski is easy to admire for his commitment to these kids, his humility and his willingness to serve. I’ve been coaching with my assistants, Ron and Jeff, for years and they are great friends and trusted sources for advice and direction.
