I'm very happy being able to travel freely and go anywhere I want to.

You have to be even better as a coach than as a player in dropping what happened, good or bad, and moving on to the next one, because there is always a new matchup to prepare for.

For lack of a better calling, I just figured my dad's a doctor. He seems to enjoy what he does, so I had my eye on playing volleyball in college, maybe a tiny bit after, but then going to medical school and becoming a doctor.

The actual work of reviewing, teaching and learning is human to human.

It's hard to grow up to be a good man and a good husband and a good father and at least at some level, my dad gave me a great gift to be able to grow up in the volleyball context and know that I was on a good path.

I absorbed a lot from my dad. He's very disciplined, very productive, and uses his time well. Those are all things you want when you compete.
