For fifteen years, I've been sharing my love for basketball and helping players reach their full potential. My coaching style balances rigorous skill development with a fun, supportive environment that allows players to thrive. Let's work together to elevate your game.

Basketball was my first love. Although I didn’t play at the collegiate level, I had the opportunity to coach at the Division 1 level with the University of Portland Men’s Basketball program. During my time there, I led private workouts for our players, assisted with player development, and helped run youth camps on the side. I have worked with high level recruits and seen firsthand what separates good players from great ones. I believe that mastering the fundamentals is what truly elevates a player’s game. My goal is to help players build confidence, sharpen their skills, and understand what collegiate programs look for in their athletes. Every player’s journey is different, so I tailor workouts to match both skill level and personal goals. Above all, basketball is a game of heart — learning how to compete with passion while maintaining control is what transforms a player, both on and off the court.

With a decade on the court, I blend skill and strategy to elevate your game. I provide focused training for all levels, fostering growth through a supportive, engaging approach. My passion ignites potential!

I played 5 years of college basketball, and I've been coaching youth sports for the past couple years. I also have experience training NBA and NCAA players. I'm willing to work with any age, any skill level. The coaches I had throughout my playing career changed my life, and my goal is to pass on my experiences to the next generation.
