I love interacting with our team. It's awesome to see our players improve and learn to do things they couldn't previously do.

HOW DO YOU ANSWER WHEN ASKED TO DESCRIBE MALONE'S BRAND OF EDUCATION?

Malone's brand of education is personal. The professors at Malone are missional and they pursue our students beyond the surface level.

Malone students are practical and they are focused on what matters.

Aside from our team, my colleagues are my favorite part of Malone. Our staff is supportive of one another and committed to their work in leadership. 

WHERE WERE YOU BORN AND HOW HAS THAT START REFLECTED IN YOUR PERSONALITY?

I was raised in Holmes county and am one of five children, including an identical twin brother. It's a region of Ohio that is rooted in strong values and work ethic and, from an early age, I learned how to model those things on our basketball staff.
