Born in Peru, I am a family-oriented man. All my children played for Armstrong soccer. I coached for over 10 years for many different clubs, including MTA, and currently for Edina Soccer Club. I am also a licensed coach. I’m very passionate and experienced in soccer coaching, adept in training effective defense and offensive techniques. A high-energy problem solver and teacher, I am able to read the other team's tactics. Strong leadership capabilities, coupled with persistence and a desire to win games, with time management skills and the ability to deal with in-game pressure. I truly believe that building relationships with the students, both as players and individuals, is the key factor in my coaching experience.
