More About Coach Lakin

I will bring a diverse and dynamic coaching background to our sessions that spans every level—from early development and youth programs to collegiate and Olympic-caliber athletes. I spent three seasons as an assistant women’s basketball coach at my alma mater, Dartmouth College, after playing professionally in France and earning an MBA from Durham University Business School in the United Kingdom. I have collaborated with Under Armour and coached youth camps for WNBA stars such as Aliyah Boston and Kelsey Plum. As an early advocate for 3x3 basketball in the United States, I guided the USA Basketball U23 Women’s National Team through the 2022 Nations League final in Constanta, Romania. Before beginning my coaching career, I was a first-team All-Ivy League athlete at Dartmouth College, team captain, and member of the 1,000-point club.

Client Reviews

My daughter loved working with Lakin.

Great coach!

(no details provided)

Coach Lakin was phenomenal, my daughter is already feeling so much more confident after her first session. Very organized and poetic with her approach and the coaches implementation of structure and experience is the reason why my daughter will no longer go to any other coach. She can't wait for her next session with Coach Lakin!

The training has very detailed and focused on body mechanics. It was very helpful and allowed me to understand what I need to work on specifically. I will definitely continue to train with this coach.

Coach Lakin is a very skilled, educated and personable individual in her field. She did a great job of creating a plan for our workout and assessing what my needs are moving forward. I will most definitely be training with Coach Lakin in the future. If you want someone that is organized, knowledgeable, and is an example of what a high level basketball player embodies, Coach Lakin is your coach.
