I spent 20 years in Information Technology (IT) before becoming a women’s basketball college coach.

When I started my IT career in web development, the Internet was still fairly new. 

Google was in its beginning stages. There was no such thing as social media. YouTube did not exist. Websites were static, mainly text, not many pictures, definitely no videos and mostly 1 long page. 

Since April 1st, I have read my goals every morning when I wake up. Then one of the last things I do before going to bed is read my goals again. This is a change from what I did while I was coaching college basketball. 

My 1st year as a college coach, my only goal was to get an idea of what college coaching was about. At the end of the season, I reflected on what I did well, what I struggled with, and what I wanted to do better at. Then I wrote down new goals.

Division 1 women’s basketball college coaches are only allowed 65 days to recruit in a year. This is down from 112 days. This does not include the evaluation months of April, May, June and July. It basically relates to the regular basketball season.
