I have coached at the high school and colligate (D1, D2 and NAIA level). My first experience was coaching my girlfriend voluntarily who didn’t have a Coach when she was at James Madison University. I was able to develop her into throwing 44.75m in the discus and 49.50m in the hammer PRing at her last meet at Sunbelt championships. After she graduated I started helping my Coach develop athletes and my alma mater, while still throwing post collegiately at the University of Mount Olive. While coaching at my alma mater, I’ve picked up a couple of athletes one Jaylan who competed at the NAIA, NCAA D2 and now is currently at the NCAA D1 level. He was a HBCU conference champion, D2 conference 2nd place finisher his first year in and his PR’s are 42.92m in the discus and 52.71m in the hammer. lastly, is one of my athletes Seth, who is a double conference and regional champ in the shotput and discus and a 4th place finisher at the NCHSSA 2026 outdoor state championship in the shot put this past year and is projected to go to nationals his freshman year of college. My biggest philosophy is that I don’t want my athletes to PR at every single meet. I want my athletes to throw big and throw well at the correct time and slowly develop into exceptional athletes! I work with any age group, anyone who wants to learn i’d truly love to help!

I was a student athlete at the university of Mount Olive in North Carolina. My bests were 16.18m in the shotput, 44.20m in the discus, and 47.20m in the hammer. I was a conference champion in the men’s shotput, and seven time runner-up in the men’s shotput all other years of my college athletic journey. On average at most conference championships I’ve scored 8 to 14 points in the throws events alone.

I have plenty of experience competing at all different levels, and against all different levels. I’ve competed against D1, D2, D3, and NAIA schools, most notable conferences i’ve competed from schools form: ACC, SEC, SAC Conference Carolinas, and Big South. i’ve also competed against professional athletes who compete at the world stage.

A typical session with me would look like this: The athlete will go through their normal progression, me possibly make corrections to their progression, then have them understand HOW and WHY we do the things that we do. I found that this has a profound result, allowing for the athlete to create a better mind, body connection when doing certain things. Next, if the athlete wants to work with me further. I’ll start building them a program, have them record video throughout the week, I will review it send notes and then we’ll work on what we need to work on next session.
