Thanksgiving tournament All-Tournament team(2X) and MVP. Christmas tournament All-Tournament team(2X) and MVP. Upstate 8 All-Conference team(2X). Illinois 6A All-Tournament team. I played one year at Hutchinson Community College(KS). I was a starter at Northwest Mississippi Community College for one year where I led the team in steals and assists. I finished my college career as a two year starter at Fort Hays State University(KS) where I led the team in steals and assists(2X). After college I played semi pro basketball in Canada, Mexico, Michigan, Illinois, and Oregon.
How I can help you improve your game:
I can help improve conditioning, shooting, ball handling, passing, defense, IQ or any skill the athlete needs/wants to improve.
What a typical training session looks like with me:
I start with a warm-up, progress to a main workout focused on your specific goals, incorporating a mix of exercises with proper form guidance, and then finish with a competitive mental challenge.
All training sessions are based on the athlete.
Career summary and accomplishments:
I coached high school basketball for 3 years. I coached youth travel basketball for over 10 years.
Best coach I ever had:
My best coach would be coach Wyatt because he would take time out of his day to work with me on my skills and explain why we were doing each workout. When I had doubt he believed in me. He has a high basketball IQ and would share some things he learned playing college and professional basketball.
What athletes and parents should know about me:
I love the game of basketball. I believe challenges and hard work will lead to success. If you feel you're a beginner or an elite player… I can help you get better.

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.

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!
