Prior to his time at Buffalo State, Estarfaa worked on the staff at Syracuse University for the 2022-23 season. While there, he served as the video coordinator and director of player personnel. In that season, the Orange went 20-13, including a 75-67 win over North Carolina and wins over Kent State and Seton Hall in the WNIT.

Before working at Buffalo, Estarfaa spent two seasons as an assistant coach at Daemen College. The Wildcats had a magical season in 2018-19 as they compiled a 24-6 overall record, the most victories in the program’s NCAA Division II era, while capturing the program’s second ECC regular season title and earning them a berth in the NCAA Division II East Region Championships for the first time in program history.
