Redding played three years of basketball at Albright College for Coach Ken Tyler. He graduated from Albright in 2001 with a degree in English.

Redding spent 2001-02 at Division I Virginia Commonwealth University, earning a master's degree in sports leadership and serving an internship with the men's basketball program. He has worked numerous camps, including Wake Forest, Villanova, Virginia, and Maryland.
