Living from hotel room to hotel room.

Me and FIVB supervisor Benito Montessi from Italy


So living in hotels for weeks is starting to get to me. I miss my room! But it's all good because I love my job! Traveling with Team USA and meeting new people....I couldn't ask for more. I have my first official FIVB match under my belt and I'm ready for this weekend against Finland which should be 2 easy wins for Team USA.

After this weekend I fly to Dallas to coach my 171 team at nationals then it's time to catch up with my Newman bros. A lot of the crew if coming to the ICT for Ripple's wedding....prolly more for the bachelor party and reception haha. Then it's off to Bloomington, IL for USA vs Spain.

I also got hired to be the VIS manager for the NORCECA boys world championships in Miami and I will also be the Public Relations and Media Director at the event. Finally I get to put my education to use! I will also be doing the same at the FIVB High Performance Championships in Tucson. After all that I have my Gold Medal Squared and WSU camps to attend to. Turns out I'll actually be missing the first day of WSU preseason.

I must say I love my job(s). It definately beats being in the office and in the gym all day. Hopefully this will lead to a full time career for me.

Until next time...
That's how the Ridge rolls
