I have experience working with basketball players of all ages ranging from elementary school up through college. I have also spent multiple summers coaching 8th grade AAU basketball. In addition to my experience with basketball coaching, I am also am currently working as a strength coach. I have used my experience in the strength and conditioning world to gain a different perspective than most basketball trainers. I teach my athletes how to move better so that they can beat defenders off the dribble, develop more efficient jump shots, and become lock down defenders.

I recently graduated from Occidental College after being a member of the basketball team for 4 years. During my time at Occidental, I was a team captain and a member of the 2018-19 team that finished the season as the SCIAC conference runner-up. I was a First Team All-Conference player in high school.

I tailor my sessions to the specific athlete. With younger players, workouts are well-rounded and we work on every aspect of the game. As players get older, we spend more time improving and adding skills that will complement their own unique games. As players continue to attend sessions, I will progress drills to make sure that the athletes are consistently being challenged. My sessions are always efficient and fast-paced so my players can work themselves into basketball shape while they improve their skills.
