Buffalo Commons is a very welcoming school, and you feel the unity from the start!

My Story
Born and raised in Lackawanna NY. Graduated from St. Francis High School and Buffalo State College. I'm a big Buffalo sports fan including the Bills, Sabres, and Bandits. I have worked with youth for over 15 years. Away from Buffalo Commons, I'm a varsity high school boys basketball coach.
What Brings Me Joy
Spending time with friends and family. Seeing my athletes succeed not only in basketball but in life as well.
What I'm Good At
I would say I'm good at building relationships with youth. Being someone they can trust and who understands them no matter what situation they come from.
What the World Needs
The world needs people to be more caring and understanding. People need to be less connected to their phones and social media.
Why Commons?
It is a very welcoming school, and I felt the unity from the start. Its a community oriented school, with many caring adults. It just feels like a place that I will be able to grow at.
