I’m a Division 1 basketball player with experience competing at the highest collegiate level, and I currently train athletes in Los Angeles. At 6’10, I bring a unique perspective to the game and specialize in skill development, footwork, and improving overall basketball IQ. I’ve trained and competed against high-level players, so I understand what it takes to reach the next level. My goal is to help athletes build strong fundamentals, gain confidence, and apply their skills in real game situations. I work with players of all ages and skill levels—from beginners learning the basics to advanced athletes preparing for high school or college competition. I focus on creating a positive but competitive environment where players are pushed to improve every session. I take pride in helping athletes grow both on and off the court. Training Focus: * Shooting mechanics & consistency * Ball handling & footwork * Finishing & scoring moves * Game IQ & decision-making * Confidence & discipline
I’m a lifelong student of the game, raised in a family of coaches, and I’ve spent years in the gym studying how players actually improve. I care about the details—footwork, decision-making, and building skills that show up in real games. Every session is focused on helping players grow their confidence, understand the game, and become more effective when it matters. I built my own game around efficiency—shooting over 60% from three with a 3:1 assist-to-turnover ratio—and that same approach is what I now use to help players improve and reach their potential. Above all, my goal is to help players develop a genuine love for the game that lasts a lifetime.
