Because why not?
I have played AAU since I was 5 all the way up to 18 years old. I got me a conference championship ring in college, and I also assisted in coaching in college for my last semester. I'm young and I have a lot of knowledge to share with the upcoming athletes. So if you want someone who is going to set you on the right path, I'm the person for you.

About Me:
I have a lot of accomplishments in my career. I started playing when I was five and played aau until the end of my junior year in high school. I played varsity all 4 years in HS and we were district champs. Then in college I started at Tarleton then finished the remaining 3 years at the University of Texas at Dallas. These are the awards I got while playing at UTD: 2023-24 All-ASC Third Team...2023-24 ASC All-Defensive Team...2023-24 ASC Sportsmanship Athlete of the Year...2022-23 & 2023-24 Academic All-ASC. Other awards I received is the Iron Comet Award back to back (which is being a leader in the weight room). At my 3 years at UTD, we won a conference championship.
How I can help you improve your game:
How I can help someone improve their game is by getting back to fundamentals of what basketball is. A lot of players focus so much about being flashy and wanting to only score and the IQ gets forgotten. I will help you improve your game by working on all skills (both offensive and defensive) and sharing my knowledge of how to see the court as well as giving a full breakdown to help players understand.
What a typical training session looks like with me:
A typical session would include a good warmup and dynamic stretch for about 10 minutes, then depending whats on the agenda and the focus for that day, we would work on finishing, reading screens and different options off the screen. Getting shots up that would happen in in-game situations. Working on defense and how to become a better on ball and overall defender. Also working on passing and building IQ.
Career summary and accomplishments:
After finishing my last season with UTD, I still had one semester left. I used that last semester to help out and become a student assistant coach. Where i was able to help with film sessions, coming up with play ideas, training collegiate players, and helping make in game decisions.
Best coach I ever had:
The best coach I ever had was my AAU coaches. Coach Jiggets and Coach James. They taught me everything I knew and laid a great foundation for me to strive as a point guard. They never strayed away from keeping the team honest, but they always treated us like one of their daughters. We are still close to this day, and I continue to be grateful to have coaches that made an impact in my life like they have.
What athletes and parents should know about me:
I am a chill person, also pretty introverted. However, when it comes to basketball, I want to share the knowledge that I have been given and learned throughout the years. I am very patient and passionate and I want the next generation to continue to bring the love of basketball. So athletes and parents, just know you're in good hands.

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.
What if I don't love the first lesson?
The AU guarantee (refund policy) has you covered! If you determine the coach isn't a good fit after your first lesson, let us know within 24 hours and you're eligible for a refund. We will also be happy to recommend another coach - be sure to contact our support team.
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!
