He returned to the Greek A1 Ethniki that same month after signing with P.A.O.K. Thessaloniki V.C.. He joined Turkish club Halkbank Ankara of the Turkish Men's Volleyball League in Summer of 2009. He stayed with the club through early May 2010.

He was a mainstay for the United States moving forward, appearing in a number of major competitions including the 2009 Men's NORCECA Volleyball Championship, 2010 FIVB Volleyball Men's World Championship qualification (NORCECA), 2009 FIVB Volleyball World League, 2010 FIVB Volleyball World League, 2011 FIVB Volleyball Men's World Cup, 2011 Pan American Games, 2011 Men's NORCECA Volleyball Championship, 2011 FIVB Volleyball World League, and 2012 FIVB Volleyball World League.
