Soccer has given me the opportunity to work with athletes at every stage of their journey, from 8-year-olds learning the fundamentals to professional players competing at the highest levels of the game. My coaching experience includes working with goalkeepers and field players of all ages and skill levels, helping each athlete build confidence, improve technique, and reach their individual goals.

I have coached and led goalkeeper training sessions with professional organizations including Miami FC, FC Tulsa, and Inter Miami CF, and have worked alongside professional goalkeepers competing at the highest levels of the sport. While goalkeeper development is my specialty, I also work extensively with field players on technical skills, athletic development, and overall performance.

As a Certified Personal Trainer (CPT) and former professional player, I bring both playing and coaching experience to every session. My goal is to create a positive, challenging, and enjoyable training environment where athletes can develop their skills, build confidence, and grow their love for the game.

My soccer journey began in South Florida, where I developed through Plantation FC before earning the opportunity to play Division I soccer at Florida International University (FIU). During my five-year collegiate career, I was named team captain and graduated Magna Cum Laude while competing at one of the highest levels of college soccer.

In 2020, I was selected 32nd overall by the Vancouver Whitecaps in the MLS SuperDraft, turning a lifelong dream into reality. I went on to enjoy a five-year professional career, competing with Vancouver Whitecaps, Inter Miami, FC Tulsa, Hibernians FC in Europe, and Miami FC.

My experience has allowed me to learn from elite coaches, train alongside top professionals, and compete in a variety of environments and leagues. Those experiences continue to shape my coaching philosophy today, helping me provide athletes with insights that go beyond technical skills and prepare them for success both on and off the field

Every session is designed to be challenging, engaging, and tailored to the athlete’s age, skill level, and goals.

We begin with a dynamic warm-up to prepare the body for training and reduce the risk of injury. From there, we focus on coordination, agility, footwork, and movement mechanics—foundational elements that are essential for developing athleticism and improving performance on the field.

The core of each session is dedicated to technical development. Goalkeepers can expect position-specific training that focuses on handling, footwork, positioning, shot-stopping, distribution, and decision-making. Field players will work on technical skills such as passing, receiving, dribbling, first touch, finishing, and game-related movements.

As athletes progress, I incorporate more challenging drills and realistic game scenarios to help transfer skills from training into competition. Throughout every session, I emphasize proper technique, confidence, work ethic, and attention to detail.

My goal is for every athlete to leave training having learned something new, improved a specific aspect of their game, and most importantly, enjoyed the process of getting better.
