About Me:
Former college baseball pitcher who has developed a deep passion for the mental side of sports.
How I can help you improve your game:
Goal setting, visualization, positive self-talk, structured journaling, developing resilience, competitive focus
What a typical training session looks like with me:
Training sessions are tailored for the athlete. Once I get to know the athlete, their background, their goals, and what they are looking to get from me, I can tailor a plan that specifically addresses what exactly that athlete needs. Remote.
Career summary and accomplishments:
Rockford East Single Season Saves Record.
Head of Player Development for Jr. Rivets.
Owner of Full Bloom Performance.
Best coach I ever had:
The best coach I ever had was my grandpa.
What athletes and parents should know about me:
I spent my career realizing that the hardest battle isn’t fought against the batter—it’s fought between your ears.
As a former collegiate pitcher, I lived the “Pitcher Only” life. I know the pressure of the 3-2 count, coming into the game in an unfavorable situation, the mental recovery required after a tough inning, and the discipline needed to stay sharp when you only have one job: to perform when it matters the most. But I also saw how many athletes, myself included, were training their bodies daily while leaving their mental game to chance.
I knew that “toughing it out” wasn’t a strategy. I wanted to understand what led to peak performance. That led me to a B.S. in Psychology and a Master of Science in Sport Psychology.
I combine my “in-the-dirt” experience as a college athlete with advanced psychological expertise. I don’t just offer “motivation”—I provide a clinical and evidence-based approach to mental conditioning.

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.
