I can’t imagine where my career would be without the advice, support, and direction I’ve gotten from Johan. His mentorship has taken me from a board shorts wearing unpaid assistant to a confident and capable head coach. There’s no aspect of my development that hasn’t been informed by Johan, whether it be the nuts and bolts of practice planning and player development to big themes like time management, job searches, and life balance. They say successful people build a great team around them, and if I had to build mine again Johan would be a first round pick.
