More About Coach Jessie
My experience ranges from playing on the field in high school to coaching youth football to attending numerous coaching seminars. I also obtained my BS in Sports Science with an emphasis in Sports Coaching in addition to completing a mentorship with the head coach of a recognized college in Pittsburgh, PA. While in high school in California I started as a running back and cornerback. I also served as team captain all four years. My coaching experience of five years started with players ages 6-8 and continued on to include players 12-14. I have also attended various coaching clinics and seminars in the Pittsburgh area.
My most recent experience includes serving my mentorship working with the head football coach of Duquesne University during the 2013 spring and regular seasons. Additionally, I have my current Act 33 & 34 clearances. My experience allows me to provide many different teaching styles including classroom work, on field drills, and live action game situations.

If you or your child have a need for specialized, one-on-one tailored coaching to improve current performance and skill or to prepare for the next level I would enjoy the opportunity to talk to you and see if we can get the process going to make you a better player!
I played one year of youth football in California. I did not play Jr High school football but tried out and started for my freshmen team. I was a four year starter and team captain.

Client Reviews
Jason (CoachUp client)
Amazing coach!!! Great interaction with my son and other kids during group training. Explains why things are done, not just how and always keeps things positive. Tailors the sessions to what the player needs, for us that has been primarily Wide Receiver and Defense. We saw immediate results in the leagues my son has been playing in. My son loves the sessions and looks forward to going.....even in the Vegas heat. Cannot recommend Coach Jessie highly enough!

Very good with noticing player weakness to make him better as an athlete. My son really enjoyed working out with Coach Z
Maria (CoachUp client)
Coach Jessie is the real deal. Our son transitioned from playing soccer for 11 years to freshman high school football, and Coach helped him tremendously. He taught football IQ, techniques and form, and reading the field and players. After one season of playing high school football, our son was moved up to Varsity! Thank you Coach Jessie!
Edward (CoachUp client)
Coach Jessie has done a great job with my son. He teaches him new techniques to help him become a better player. Each session with Coach Jessie helps my son more.
Roman (CoachUp client)
First session was to see how my son would get with Coach Z. Everything went well and he is very knowledgeable and told us what his plan was to make our son better. We were impressed with his thoughts and plans going forward. Signed up for 10 more sessions.
Marc (CoachUp client)

Mitch (CoachUp client)
My son had a lot of fun and coach Jessie was great at explaining the drills for my 6 year old to understand... excited for the next session
Andrea (CoachUp client)
We are still doing sessions with Coach Jessie. In just two sessions my son has shown significant improvement at football practice. Coach Jessie not only makes the practices fun, but he teaches the skills in a fashion that a younger child can understand. What is the most exciting to me is watching my son gain his confidence in his skill set. I am beyond impressed with Coach Jessie's ability to tailor sessions to the client's needs and adapt the material to be taught in a way that really "sticks" with their learning style. His two sessions have taught him more than 7 weeks of his practice has, and that is a testament to Coach Jessie's talent. Thank you!
Joe (CoachUp client)
Great first session. Really did a nice job assessing my son's needs and developing a strategy for future coaching sessions.
Thomas (CoachUp client)

Andrea' (CoachUp client)
My son is competitive and plays football in a "socially competitive" township.
Thus far, Coach Jessie has motivated my son and helped to mould his skill set. I look forward to the 2016 - 2017 football season to monitor my son's improvement.

Leading up to the coaching sessions Jessie was very communicative. His responsiveness is outstanding. He was ready to coach and early to the field. He was setup and prepared. He had prepared a series of skills and drills ahead of time by listening carefully and responding to our needs. He had outlined the drills, and printed off the routine ahead of time as well - one copy for me and one for him.. He worked in the areas we wanted, and observed areas that also needed some focus. He also introduced some neat drills that Marc hadn't seen before. Great job, Jessie.
Jared (CoachUp client)
Coach Jessie is very energetic and he was a great coach!
Eladio (CoachUp client)
Jessie really helped me with developing my wide receiver skills a lot. He's a good coach and very understanding and makes sure that you get the best out of every session.
