He and I worked shoulder to shoulder for two years while directing “sister” programs in the MeritCare Sports Medicine department. Brian directed Athletic Training and I directed Exercise Physiology. We shared staff and we planned two large events together, an annual sports medicine conference and a region-wide athlete testing event. I saw Brian in the trenches. He brought many creative ideas to the table. He had a vision for making the sports medicine programs great. In the time we worked together, I observed him coaching his staff to improve performance, providing hands on medical care, and leading efforts to expand the sports medicine service line. Brian never seemed content with the status quo and he was able to develop buy-in from his veteran staff in many cases. Brian taught people on a daily basis. He perpetually taught medical providers the importance of athletic trainers. He taught athletes how to manage their injuries and he taught his staff important skills for managing their respective school training rooms. Brian has a strong character that would be an asset to any organization. He is bright and personable."
