About Me:
Hello everyone! I am currently a senior at Texas Tech studying Sports Management. Post graduation, I plan on coaching high school football in the Austin Area. My freshman year of college I played division 1 football at McNeese State University in Lake Charles, LA before transferring to Texas Tech. This past Fall I worked part time for a football analytics company called Pro Football Focus helping stat track games and analyze data live in game. Over the summer, I co-founded Jump Start Football Academy, where I hosted a football clinic every weekday morning pulling in 20-30 kids per morning from ages K-8th grade. I also held private lessons with middle school/high school athletes in the area. I had a blast coaching over the summer, so I would love to keep the ball rolling in Lubbock.
How I can help you improve your game:
In middle school and high school football, the number of players significantly outnumbers the amount of coaches. Young players often don't get the personalized coaching they need, causing their development to halt and falling out of love with the game. With a defensive background, I can help break down fundamentals, sharpen technique, and teach you how to read the game. With position-specific drills and real game situations, I can help your child play faster, smarter, and more confident on every snap.
What a typical training session looks like with me:
We start with a dynamic warmup which is crucial for young athletes to learn how to do. Then, we'll jump into basic drills that apply to every play within a game. Depending on skill level and age, we will move into more advanced/situational drills that will help boost understanding of the game.
Career summary and accomplishments:
My first year of tackle football was played at 7 years old in Flower Mound, Tx (North DFW). I went on to play at Flower Mound High School and was a team captain at linebacker my senior year. Received 1st team district 6-6a honors and defensive MVP in 2021. Finished my senior season with 113 tackles, 3 INT's, 3 sacks, and 4 PBU's. Went on to accept an offer to play at McNeese State in 2022 where I earned academic all conference honors before transferring to Texas Tech.
Best coach I ever had:
The best coach I ever had is named Bryan Vardeman. I played under him at Flower Mound as he was the defensive coordinator and linebacker coach. Some of his strengths were connecting with players, being intense with the ability to have fun, and being a good teacher.
What athletes and parents should know about me:
I enrolled to be a private coach on Athletes Untapped because I truly love to coach. I take great pride in seeing player's improve over time with proper coaching. I hope to be able to boost your love for the game while at the same time pushing you to work and get better every day.

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 find yourself needing to cancel or adjust your booking within 24 hours of your purchase, just let us know. We'll provide a refund - no questions asked. Your satisfaction is our top priority, and we're here to support your learning journey.
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!
