International Box Lacrosse Player | Multi-Sport Athlete
I am an international box lacrosse athlete who has competed for both Team USA and Team Canada. I bring high-level game experience, strong fundamentals, and a deep understanding of lacrosse IQ, footwork, and mental toughness. As a multi-sport athlete with backgrounds in cross country, Nordic skiing, and rugby, I emphasize speed, conditioning, and resilience in my training sessions. My coaching style focuses on confidence-building, skill development, and helping athletes understand not just how to play the game, but how to think the game. I aim to create challenging, positive, and supportive sessions that help athletes grow both on and off the field.

About Me:
I am an international box lacrosse athlete who has competed for both Team USA and Team Canada. As a multi-sport athlete with experience in cross country, Nordic skiing, rugby, and lacrosse, I bring a strong understanding of conditioning, speed, and mental toughness. I am passionate about helping young athletes build confidence, improve fundamentals, and develop a deeper understanding of the game.
How I can help you improve your game:
I focus on stick skills, footwork, game IQ, and situational decision-making. Whether you are new to the sport or looking to compete at a higher level, I tailor each session to your goals. I help athletes build confidence, improve consistency, and understand how to perform under pressure. My goal is not just to improve skills, but to help athletes think the game and play with confidence.
What a typical training session looks like with me:
Each session starts with a dynamic warm-up and footwork activation to build speed and agility. We then focus on position-specific drills, stick work, shooting mechanics, and game-scenario reps. I incorporate competitive drills to simulate real game pressure and finish with feedback and goal-setting for continued improvement. Every session is structured, challenging, and positive.

Best coach I ever had:
The best coach I ever had was someone who balanced high expectations with strong support.

I model my coaching after that same standard—challenging athletes while building their confidence.
What athletes and parents should know about me:

I believe in building not only better athletes, but confident and disciplined young people. I am reliable, prepared, and committed to helping every athlete reach their full potential.

Frequently Asked Questions
How do I contact a coach?
If you’re looking to message a coach for the first time, go to their profile and click “Send a Message”. A type box will show, where you can enter and send your message. To follow up with a coach you've already contacted, log into your account and find the 'Inbox' tab. You'll see your message history and be able to send another note.
How do I book lessons?
Once you find a coach that fits your needs, go to their profile, select the package you'd like to purchase, and click 'Book Lessons'. Here, you can reserve your desired number of lessons along with the number of athletes who will be training. After sessions are booked, coordinate the dates/times for each session on your calendar - using the calendar is important since this is how your coach will get paid.
Can I pay my coach via Venmo or cash?
Paying AU coaches via cash, Venmo, or any 3rd party is strictly prohibited. AU coaches know this, but their partnership with us is to split all bookings 80/20 - so coaches keep 80%. We use our 20% to help them find clients & manage their business. Without the split, we wouldn't be able to help our coaches & community thrive!
What if I don't feel comfortable paying online?
We integrate with Stripe - the largest & most secure payment processor in the US - to facilitate bookings. Paying online is required, and it simplifies the process for our coaches since it helps track their schedule & earnings in one place. If you have any questions or concerns, please contact our support team.
Where will the coach hold their lessons?
Each coach typically has at least one preferred training location. You can see the location(s) by going to your coach's profile and finding the 'Training Locations' section. If a coach doesn't have locations listed here, you can message the coach to see where they train. Some coaches are willing to travel to clients for lessons, or even meet halfway.
When is the coach available to train?
Each coach sets their own schedule for training. You can see a coach's general availability by going to their profile and finding the 'Availability' section - it will list the days and times. If a coach doesn't post their availability, or if your preferred coach doesn't have your desired times available but you want to double check, message them to see if they can work with your schedule.
How do rescheduling, cancellations, and lesson credits work?
Good Fit Guarantee — If your first lesson isn't the right fit, we'll move your lesson credit to a new coach. No hassle.
Easy rescheduling — Cancel or reschedule up to 4 hours before a lesson, no questions asked.
Coach no-shows — You'll be fully credited and we'll help you find a replacement.
Flexible credits — Unused lessons last 12 months and can be used with any coach on the platform.

Do coaches work with both kids & adults?
Our coaches are open to helping athletes of any age and skill level. Please message your desired coach to ensure their skillset fits your needs.
Why should I trust AU and their coaches over other platforms?
AU was created by former collegiate and professional athletes. We understand the benefits of training with a private coach. It develops discipline, boosts confidence, and provides an undeniable advantage - whether you are just learning the game or looking to earn a college scholarship. All AU coaches are required to pass a thorough onboarding process and we proudly showcase a 10% acceptance rate, so you can trust you're training with the best.
At the end of the day, our mission is to provide athletes with better opportunities to succeed through coaching. You won't find a platform, and group of dedicated specialists, more excited to help you achieve your athletic goals!
