Before coming to the NCAA, Regan was the associate athletics director for compliance and student services at Stony Brook University. He also completed stints as the assistant athletics director for compliance at the University of Houston; Northern Arizona University; and University at Buffalo, the State University of New York.

Regan previously was a partner in the law firm of Leblanc, Herrmann and Regan, and he coached men's soccer at Canisius College and State University College at Buffalo. He received his law degree from the University of Akron.
