I have been coaching for the past 7 years now ranging from ages 3-12. Through the years I have worked with premier teams in the bay area and recently I work with players 3-8 years of age at West Valley youth soccer League. I Have a coaching license with the NSCAA.

I played high school soccer and I have played soccer all my life at the premier level with my club soccer team. I competed in the bay area. at WVYSL I have been promoted to head coach manager.

I like to focus on developing specifically on ball control, touch, shooting, and agility. I like to run a session with a theme. If I will be training on touch, then my practice will start with basic passing drills and gradually build on that theme through the session. Each session has to start with a proper warm up with or with out the ball, and should end with a proper cool down. At the end of my sessions I like to talk to the player and ask them what they learned and how does this help them grow as a player.
