Play Basketball at The Basketball Social House

Born and raised in Colorado, I’ve lived and breathed basketball my whole life. I trained and played at the highest levels — starting at Highlands Ranch High School where I was ranked 2nd in the state, then competing at Gonzaga and now at the University of Wyoming. I’m here to give back. My goal as a trainer is simple: to help young players grow with confidence, discipline, and love for the game. I know what it takes to compete, and I know what it feels like to need someone who believes in you. My coaching style is hands-on, encouraging, and built around your goals — whether you're just starting out or chasing that next level. Let’s get in the gym and get to work. I'm passionate about cultivating well-rounded basketball players by instilling not just skills, but also sportsmanship and a genuine love for the game. With 19 years of experience, I provide individualized guidance to help athletes at any level reach their full potential on and off the court. Let's work together to elevate your game!

With a decade on the court as coach, I blend time-honored techniques with innovative strategies. My passion is fostering growth, building confidence, and creating well-rounded players. I played from age 3 to 18. I have coached from age 12 to 30 I off and on. I currently coach at a 6A high school. My freshmen boys have won 35 games with only 3 losses in the last two season. One league runner up and one league championship. I may not be the most skilled overall, but I know this game. Trust that. I have been doing private coaching the last few summers. I enjoy it. I balance pushing you, teaching you basics and off ball movement, and encouraging. Find a love for it. Let's elevate your game!

I’ve been playing basketball for 20 years. I have coached and trained for 4th-9th grade and all skill levels. I love basketball and I love coaching! I believe that anyone can grow in basketball skill with the right combination of practice and confidence. You will never doubt whether or not I believe in you! Whether it is someone who is just looking to play with their friends or someone looking to take their game to a new level, I love the challenge and the process. I look forward to working together and finding the right process for you.
