With two decades dedicated to basketball instruction, I empower athletes to reach their full potential. My expertise lies in refining fundamentals, fostering strategic thinking, and cultivating a passion for the game. I've had the privilege of being coached and mentored by some of the greatest minds in basketball history—an experience that shaped my philosophy and deepened my understanding of the sport. Now, I’m committed to giving back what I’ve been given, passing on that knowledge and passion to the next generation. I strive to make every session productive, engaging, and inspiring.
"Getting a really encouraging lesson with Sarah was quite helpful, especially as I feel I've continued growing my skills and confidence overall. Though I’d appreciate some more specific drills tailored to my game, I think I’m heading in the right direction. Still, I might need to keep practicing to refine my shot and handle better. I’d probably suggest working on that next time, but I’m glad I tried her lesson.

Basketball is what I dedicated myself to as a kid. Through the years I have had many trainers and professionals guide me to a level that I am proud of today. I spent 4 years at University of Indianapolis playing for the Grey Hounds. I was the 15th player in their history to score 1000 points and grab 500 rebounds, I also hold the all time and single season record for blocks. After being at a basketball exposure tour for 2 days in Portugal, I was immediately flown to Oldenburg Germany to begin my brief but educational professional basketball career. Over the years I’ve learned what is most valued at each level and how to show other coaches you have what they need. My love for sport is what drives me most, and I strive to instill that love in the players I train.

Katalina
5.0 player and experienced coach. I've played in 100-plus venues in 5 years. I love working with all levels of students. If you have a tennis court in your complex, I’ll travel to you and do a lesson on your home court. Even if you’ve only dabbled in racquet sports, I can show you how the skills learned in sports we played growing up can transfer to the pickleball court. Pickleball is great as it gets you off the couch, you’ll make new friends, get a decent workout and use your brain to make lots of split-second decisions about how and where you want to hit the ball each time.
