Jude was raised in Centreville, Maryland, where he developed a deep passion for sports while playing in various local youth leagues. His early experiences not only fostered his love for athletics but also showcased his innate leadership abilities, culminating in his appointment as captain of his high school football team at Queen Anne’s County High School.

Upon graduating in 2011, Jude felt a strong calling to give back to his roots, returning to his alma mater in 2019 to take on a coaching role. His enthusiasm for mentoring young athletes drives him to instill the same passion for sports that shaped his own youth. In 2024, he took another significant step by founding Shore Sports, an initiative focused on training athletes and empowering them to realize their full potential.

In addition to his coaching endeavors, Jude is also a dedicated father of two. His son Brodie enjoys being actively involved at football practices, often trying to keep pace with the older athletes during training sessions, which adds a joyful dynamic to Jude's coaching environment. Through his work and family life, Jude embodies the spirit of mentorship and commitment to athletic development.
