Not only have I competed in the sport of Track & Field for 8 years, but I have studied what it takes to help an athlete reach the next level of athletic achievement. With a degree in Kinesiology (Human Performance) and undergoing examination for my CSCS, I understand the science behind athletic excellence. No matter what level you are at, I offer a fun an exciting program that meets you where you are and helps you reach you individual goals!

My career started at Alta Loma High School during my sophomore year. I began my career primarily as a distance runner but towards the end of my high school career, I transitioned more into long hurdles and middle distance. At the collegiate level, i continued to compete in cross country but focused primarily in middle distance during the track season. In my 5th and final season at Vanguard University, I took on the decathlon and not only had my most enjoyable year, but I gained so a wide array of knowledge on the other events.
I can help someone improve their game by developing them from the ground up, improve upon their weaknesses, and help them increase their in-competition confidence.
A typical training session will focus on 1-2 aspects of the sport (e.g. acceleration or top speed) and focus on perfecting the fundamental movements to ensure proper practice to competition translation and decrease risk of injury in sport.
My coaching experience started as an intern at ProSport as a sports performance coach. Here, I was able to learn how to develop programs for each individual athlete and coach them through it. Follow this, I transitioned into private coaching for various football, basketball, and track athletes. Now that I am a college graduate (24'), I am ready to dive in fully to the world of coaching.
The best coaches I have had are my 3 collegiate coaches. Not only did they aid in my athletic development, but as a person they guided me to grow exponentially.
The athletes and parents should know that I am a follower of Christ and my faith is incorporated into my programs. I believe in development of the athlete on an athletic and real-life setting.

Meet your coach in-person or virtually, and start chasing down your goals!
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.
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.
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!
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
