About Me:
I’m a passionate soccer coach with years of experience both on the field and on the sidelines. I grew up playing at the elite youth level for FC Dallas, where I learned the importance of technical skill, tactical awareness, and a strong work ethic. For the past four years, I’ve coached middle and lower school players, helping athletes of all abilities unlock their potential and develop a lifelong love for the game.
How I can help you improve your game:
I offer personalized, position-specific training designed to elevate every aspect of your play—from first touch and passing to defending, finishing, and game intelligence. Whether you’re new to soccer or aiming for the next level, I tailor each session to your unique goals and learning style, providing clear feedback, encouragement, and practical drills that translate directly to game-day performance.
What a typical training session looks like with me:
Each session is dynamic and fun, starting with a thorough warm-up and skill-building exercises. We’ll focus on technical drills, position-specific tactics, and small-sided games to simulate real match situations. I always end with a cool-down and a quick review, so you leave each session knowing exactly what you improved and what to work on next.
Career summary and accomplishments:
I played at the elite youth level for FC Dallas, one of the nation’s top academies. So far, I have spent four years coaching middle and lower school soccer teams. Throughout my time, I have coached players of all ages and skill levels, with a track record of helping athletes make school and club teams.
Best coach I ever had:
The best coach I ever had was someone who believed in every player, regardless of their starting point. They taught me that effort and attitude matter just as much as talent, and their positive, supportive approach inspired me to become the coach I am today.
What athletes and parents should know about me:
I’m committed to creating a positive, motivating environment where players feel confident to try new things and push their limits. I believe in open communication, honest feedback, and making every session enjoyable and productive. My goal is to help each athlete grow—not just as a player, but as a person—by fostering teamwork, resilience, and a true love for the game.

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!
