I have 6 years of coaching and training athletes. I have trained individuals at health clubs, worked with a local AAU program, as well as my personal court that I own. I have coached multiple levels from bitty ball, recreation league participants and high level AAU athletes. I have coached ages from 3yrs old up to adults. I have played college Division 1 basketball.

I attended high school at Shawnee Mission South and was our leading scorer for our 2013 State Championship. I competed at the collegiate Divison 1 level at Elon University for 3 years and Sam Houston State for 1 year. I hold multiple academic awards and athletic awards that include CAA All-Academic Team, Athletic Director’s Honor Roll, CAA Commissioner’s Academic Award and was CAA Rookie of the week in 2015. I am top 10 in three pointers made and assists at Elon University, and reached 1,000 points in the middle of my junior year.

During a typical sessions with me I start off with a warm up that includes stretching to make sure that the athlete is properly warmed up. Then we move into shooting right below the rim, again to ensure the athlete is ready for the rest of the session. I focus on ball handling, proper shooting technique, and drills tailored to the specific athlete’s needs. I am open to suggestions on what to work on from parents, coaches, and players. My ultimate goal is to improve my clients athletic ability and instill a positive attitude within each client.
