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.

I’m originally from Colombia and have played soccer since I was six years old, first coached by my father, a former professional player. I competed in local tournaments, the Bogotá league, and eventually played in the second division for a professional team from my city. I’ve also played in the U.S. and France, gaining experience across futsal, turf, and full-field formats. As an NFHS-certified coach, I currently lead futsal training in Beaverton for players ages 5 to 18. My coaching style focuses on proper technique, game intelligence, discipline, and adapting to various styles of play. Each session includes technical drills, tactical exercises, and small-sided games designed to challenge players and build complete, thoughtful athletes.

I’ve been in the water for over 22 years, and swimming has shaped every part of who I am. As a former NCAA Division I swimmer in the Big Ten Conference at The University of Nebraska-Lincoln, I specialized in butterfly and distance freestyle and was a national qualifier in both events. That experience gave me a deep appreciation for hard work, discipline, and the power of great coaching. Now, as a coach, I’m passionate about helping swimmers develop strong technique, build confidence, and find joy in the process. Whether you're working toward your first race or chasing national cuts, I bring the same energy, knowledge, and support to every athlete I work with. My goal is to create a positive and challenging environment where swimmers can grow and reach their full potential—both in and out of the pool.

With over five decades immersed in the world of piano, I cultivate a passion for music in each student. As a former symphony conductor, and educator, I can bring a wealth of experience, joy and fun to anybody that is learning or relearning the piano.

Beginner or advanced.
