Welcome from the Athletic Director
Welcome to Snook ISD Athletics!
My family and I are incredibly excited to be back in Snook and once again be part of the Bluejay community. Snook is a special place, and I am grateful for the opportunity to serve all of our students, coaches, families, and fans as Athletic Director and Head Football Coach.
I am a graduate of Sealy High School and Texas A&M University, and I began my coaching career with Bryan ISD at SFA Middle School and Bryan Rudder High School. Since then, I have had the opportunity to coach football, track, baseball, and powerlifting while helping both male and female athletes compete and succeed at the district, playoff, and state levels.
During my previous time in Snook from 2019–2021, I was proud to help lead the Bluejays to the first district football championship, third round of the football playoffs and coach multiple boys and girls regional and state powerlifting qualifiers. My coaching journey has also taken me to Edna and Magnolia ISD, but returning to Snook feels like coming home.
As Athletic Director, I am committed to supporting and strengthening all Bluejay athletic programs—both boys’ and girls’ sports. Every athlete deserves the opportunity to grow, compete, feel supported, and represent Snook ISD with pride. Our goal is to build successful programs across the board while developing students who demonstrate discipline, toughness, teamwork, character, and respect.
Athletics is about more than wins and losses. It is about teaching young people how to work hard, overcome challenges, support one another, and become leaders on and off the field or court.
I am looking forward to working alongside our coaches, athletes, parents, school staff, and community as we continue building a strong and unified Bluejay athletic program.
Thank you for supporting Snook ISD Athletics.

Athletic Director & Head Football Coach
