I have mentored younger athletes while playing high school basketball and have continued to do that post-graduation for my high school

I have taken multiple high schoolers playing at my alma mater under my wing when I see them at the gym and have built good connections locally throughout the community

I work with high school and college talent

I am also an ISSA Certified Elite Trainer where I have a certification as a Personal Trainer and specializations in Nutrition, Strength & Conditioning and Performance Enhancement

I know basketball inside and out and have a well rounded portfolio in terms the knowledge of reaching optimal fitness and basketball artistry

I was a four-year basketball player for my high school where the Varsity Team went to the State Final my freshmen year, State Semi-Final my sophomore year, and won the State Final the year after I graduated, also the JV Team finished 16-4 or better every year while I attended.

My Varsity Head Coach is in my high school’s Hall of Fame and I learned from the best when it comes to High School Coaches. I played basketball at Centennial High School.

I was going to play Division III basketball but had a bad knee injury for 5+ years stemming from body misalignment. I am healthy now and I am in the beginning stages of getting my body right so I can tryout for Howard Community College for the 2025-2026 season and then tryout for the 2026-2027 G-League season!

I have dreams and I love it when people dream too. Let’s do this together!

I believe in text-book shooting form with a high and quick release while getting elevation off the ground

I know how to operate from the triple-threat position to create space and also how to get a step on your defender while only using triple-threat

I enforce strong dribble moves to limit turnovers and also know more advanced moves that can get defenders off balance which will lead to you immediately attacking their weak point to get the advantage

I would stress the importance of moving without the ball as simply being smart and active can get you many easy baskets and make you a headache to try to defend (good thing)

I also believe that plyometrics are incredibly important when it comes to basketball, and I have experience completing workout programs for increasing your vertical

I know drills to increase sprint speed as well and would incorporate that as speed makes the game far more easier the more you have it

Additionally, I know a lot of techniques to get the advantage as the defender which allows you to be in control of the one-on-one matchup versus the opposing offensive player

I also think it’s important to talk about the psychological aspect of the game as I believe confidence, discipline and hard work can turn anyone into a good basketball player
