PROFESSIONAL THINKING.
COLLEGIATE FOCUS.
The trusted partner for collegiate baseball programs -
Helping you navigate new challenges to hire smarter, structure better, and acquire talent.
MY VISION
OneOne Sports was founded with a simple mission: to bring the insights, structure, and innovation of professional baseball to the evolving world of college athletics.
After two decades leading at the highest levels of Major League Baseball - including as Vice President and Assistant General Manager with the New York Mets - I started OneOne Sports to help college baseball programs navigate a new era. With the rise of NIL, the transfer portal, and rapidly increasing demands on coaches and staff, success now requires a more professionalized approach. That’s where I come in.
When you work with OneOne Sports, you’re working directly with me. I partner closely with programs to tackle their most pressing challenges - whether it’s hiring the right leaders, designing smarter infrastructure, or making better, faster decisions around player evaluation and roster strategy. I bring a proven track record of success, deep operational experience, and a sharp understanding of what it takes to win.
With decades of front-office experience, I bring a rare blend of strategy, structure, and insight to help your program thrive. Learn more about my background here.
College Baseball is changing.
Lead the Evolution.
SERVICES
The most important decision your program can make is who it brings onto its leadership team. I work directly with schools to identify, recruit, and hire top talent. Whether you’re hiring a General Manager, Head Coach, or key support staff, I help you find a leader who aligns with your program’s identity, values, and long-term vision.
Your program’s infrastructure is the foundation of long-term success. I help schools build stronger systems to support players and staff - whether through better collaboration, smarter use of data and technology, or facility planning that meets long-term goals. The right setup drives performance, efficiency, and lasting value.
Success in the transfer portal requires thoughtful planning. I help teams develop a strategic approach by providing resources to make precise player evaluations and align roster needs before the portal opens. With the right information, your team can make smarter decisions to optimize roster construction and maximize resources.
