Both as a soccer fan and as an executive, I couldn't be more thrilled to be helping head this project."

A graduate of St. Xavier High School in Louisville, the 40-year-old was previously Louisville City's executive vice president after moving from Neace Ventures. His over 10 years in the Louisville area has seen him take charge of a number of executive positions, including Vice President of Finance, Chief Financial officer, and President.
