Bio
Jeff brings a wealth of experience to the NAIT Ooks men’s soccer program. He spent nine years in the professional game with FC Edmonton, coached at back-to-back Canada Summer Games (2017 and 2022), and worked with Canada Soccer’s National Training Centre, helping develop top young players.
As both a coach and teacher, Jeff is committed to supporting student-athletes who want to succeed on the field and in the classroom. His teams play a dynamic, team-first style of soccer built on creativity, resilience, and hard work.
More than just results, Jeff focuses on building a positive team culture where players grow as athletes, leaders, and teammates. His approach blends tactical knowledge, technical training, and mental preparation—giving Ooks players the tools to compete at the highest levels of college soccer.
