Garvey Ranch ParkBasketball Venue in Monterey Park, CA

On the court, I'm all about pushing boundaries and building confidence. With 32 years of experience, I've honed a coaching style that blends technical expertise with a passion for fostering a love for the game. Let's unlock your potential together – one basket at a time. I have been playing basketball since the age of 10. My brother was on the high school team and I have trained with him growing up almost everyday. I played on my college intramural team and have taken lessons from professionals that played in college. I regularly play in basketball leagues that even have players over 6’8” tall. I am well versed in young children as I have taught young students English from three years up. (I have my own kids these ages) I am bilingual Mandarin and can explain concepts well in both languages. I am patient, kind, and enjoy seeing others achieve their goals. I look forward to teaching any students be well rounded individuals not just in sports, but in life.
