What does it mean to represent Liverpool FC:

“I feel like the journey to joining the staff has been a long-time coming, and I am so appreciative to those that have led me to join the LFC Family. Jenn Perkins (ECNL Coach / Director) gave me one of my first coaching jobs on Saturday morning in Lake Orion when I was a college player, Ben Jones (Boys Technical Director) found me when I lived in Lansing and hired me into a coaching role at my previous clubs, Simon Omekanda (Youth Technical Director) completed one of his coaching courses with me and always spoke highly of Force FC / LFC IA, Andy Wagstaff was my club coach for my last year of club soccer and we have worked together on other projects/teams, and Sam Harrington (Recreation Director) has been my mentor and allowed me to learn from and work with her teams. I wish I could list everyone but I have worked with or played soccer with a majority of the coaches in this club, so it really does feel like a big family to me.
