James started playing volleyball in college when he decided to check out the club team at UMD. He’s thankful he did, and has been in love with our beautiful game ever since!

James coached all levels at Edina High School, along with Varsity AC the past couple years.  Helping the team go to the state tournament in ’23 was one of the most rewarding experiences of his life thus far. He’s so excited to continue to learn and grow as a coach, and feels very fortunate to be doing so at Vital Volleyball Club!

2 truths and a lie…

1. I met Justin Timberlake at the airport.

2. I saw a lion eat a zebra.

3. I won $10,000 for a hole-in-one.
