Personal
In the post era of playing collegiate baseball and for the Polish National Team, coaching is the passion I have decided to follow. Within the first year of collegiate coaching, I have been offered a role in part with the Ocean State Waves to work with draft picks in the MLB. Working with Division 1 athletes from all over the country, including athletes from programs within the SEC, ACC, PAC-12, and other top conferences, it was an eye opening experience, which led me to my new job with Roger Williams University. Roger Williams is a top tier Division 3 program as it was nationally ranked in the prior season, competing in the Commonwealth Coastal Conference. The easy part of the job is the recruiting, hitting fungos, throwing batting practice, however between the Waves and RWU, I have been open to different coaching styles but similar in their own ways. I have gained experience using systems such as Trackman and Synergy to develop our guys, whether it be in game planning on how we want to approach a game plan, or offseason workout planning to build on deficiencies of guys. I bring an analytical approach to the baserunning game, gained from my network of coaches going as far as the SEC. I am currently going to be signed with the Waves for the 2023 season in the NECBL over the summer, but am open to hearing about national team head coaching jobs, as I believe I can bring the new system of baseball and give teams a push/advantage over other countries, I can get a team to buy in to the goal and follow a system to produce a winning squadron.
