Mental performance coach with a foundation in sports medicine.
Mental performance coach with a foundation in sports medicine.
I’m a mental performance coach with a master’s degree in sport and exercise psychology and a background in athletic training, which gives me unique, whole athlete perspective. My experience working on the medical side of performance allows me to better understand the demands athletes face and how mindset impacts recovery and performance. I work with athletes to build confidence, improve focus under pressure and develop mental skills that translate directly into peak performance- whether they’re competing, returning from injury or striving for the next level.

About Me:
I’ve been a certified athletic trainer since 2017 and have had the opportunity to work with very talented athletes and coaches during my career. I’ve always had an interest in psychology and the mental side of sports. While I myself may not have been a great athlete, I’ve loved helping athletes reach their goals.
From working in sports medicine, I see first hand the ups and downs that athletes face everyday, both physically and mentally. I understand that performance is not always linear and I strive to be a support for athletes as they grow in their athletic careers.
How I can help you improve your game:
We’ll work together to make goals for your success. We’ll make a plan that is individual to you, and work on skills like self talk, imagery, and mindfulness.
What a typical training session looks like with me:
Sessions will last 45- 60 minutes. We’ll talk about your week, practices and competitions. We’ll go through what’s going well for you, as well as areas you want to improve. We’ll also spending time practice skills together.

What athletes and parents should know about me:
Athletes and parents should know that our time together will be collaborative. I won’t talk at you and give you a cookie cutter plan. I believe it’s important to individualize our sessions and find what works for you. There might be times when a particular skill just isn’t working for you, and that’s ok. We’ll keep working until we find what’s best for you.

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.
