"Went from scoring one shot a game to scoring 10 shots a game!

With over 15 years of basketball experience, I bring a lifelong passion for the game both on and off the court. I began my journey playing competitive AAU travel basketball, gaining exposure to high level competition and elite training environments. Throughout high school, I was a four-year varsity basketball athlete, where I developed leadership skills, a deep understanding of team dynamics, and a strong work ethic that continues to define my approach to the sport. My passion for basketball extends beyond playing. I’ve spent several years giving back through youth coaching. I previously coached at the Boys & Girls Club and with i9 Sports, where I helped young athletes develop their skills, confidence, and love for the game. My coaching philosophy emphasizes fundamentals, teamwork, and positive mentorship, creating a supportive and structured environment for players to grow both on and off the court. Whether playing, training, or coaching, I am committed to excellence, development, and fostering a love for basketball in the next generation.

With eight years of playing experience—from youth levels to the college stage—I now focus on helping others grow through skill-based basketball training and game understanding. As a point guard and current player for KK Forza Novi Sad, I bring leadership, court vision, and deep respect for the fundamentals of the game. My training is built around: • Ball handling, shooting, and footwork • Game IQ and decision-making • Understanding the difference between 3-on-3 and 5-on-5 basketball • Developing the right mindset toward teammates, coaches, and the game itself Many players grow up playing 3-on-3 and don’t fully understand the responsibilities and spacing in 5-on-5. I help players recognize that they’re not alone on the court—you have four teammates, and knowing how to move, communicate, and adapt to them is key. I share personal insights on how to approach your teammates and coaches the right way—something that’s just as important as skills. The first training session is usually an evaluation, where we see where you’re at technically and physically. Based on that, we build a focused plan tailored to you. I also offer game film analysis when available, and if I’m in San Francisco and you’re playing, I’ll try to come and watch in person. I was the 5th-best assist leader in my league, and I always play with the intent to guide and create. That same philosophy carries into my coaching. Our work continues until I see that there’s nothing more I can give you—that’s when we know it’s time to move forward on your own. Let’s elevate your game together.

With three decades dedicated to basketball, I empower athletes to unlock their full potential. My tailored approach fosters skill development, strategic thinking, and a deep passion for the game. I strive to cultivate both exceptional players and well-rounded individuals.

"Daniel is a great guitar teacher who strikes a balance between theory and practical play. Daniel engaged our child (8) by playing songs they wanted to play even if Daniel had never heard them before. He equipped our kid with tools that allowed him to practice at home. Daniel really brought out the confidence and love in our kid to keep playing the guitar. We're so grateful for finding Daniel!!
