I have had the opportunity to coach a wide range of athletes, from beginners just learning the game (ages 5–6) to competitive U-15 and U-17 boys’ and girls’ teams. I’ve also provided private training sessions for athletes aspiring to play at the collegiate level, focusing on technical skills, tactical understanding, and overall player development.
During my college career in Tennessee, I offered individual and small-group lessons to help players grow in both confidence and ability. I was also selected to coach with TetraBrazil in Minnesota, where I gained valuable experience working within a diverse coaching team and supporting athletes at different stages of their development.

I am originally from Brazil, where soccer (or football, as I grew up calling it) has been part of my life from a very young age. I started by playing in the streets, and after being discovered while playing at school, I signed my first professional contract at just 15 years old. Over the next six years, I competed with several professional clubs in Brazil before earning a full scholarship to continue both my education and athletic career in the United States.
In the US, I played NCAA Division II soccer for four years, earning honors such as Conference Champion and Rookie of the Year. These experiences gave me the opportunity not only to grow as an athlete but also to use soccer as a tool to further my education and career.
Beyond the accolades, the sport has shaped who I am by teaching me discipline, resilience, and leadership. My goal now is to inspire young athletes to reach their full potential, not only as soccer players but as confident, well-rounded individuals

Every session is tailored to the athlete’s needs, always starting with proper body preparation to stay healthy and ready for training. I focus on the fundamentals of soccer such as passing, receiving, dribbling, first touch, shooting, and crossing, because if we master the basics, everything else follows.
For athletes looking to grow tactically, I love working on game awareness through on-field scenarios, video review, and mental preparation, helping players think the game at a higher level.
love this game and I’m thankful for everything it has given me, so guiding someone else in their journey is truly special to me.
