Who is the best coach you ever had and why?
The best coach I ever had was Coach Brett McFall. Although he never coached me in a team setting, he hosted weekly developmental training sessions that were similar to the ones I now run. Coach McFall helped me see the game in ways that took my skills to a whole new level. Without his guidance, I wouldn’t have developed the way I did and likely wouldn’t have made it to the collegiate level.
What should athletes and parents know about you?
Athletes and parents should know that I’m deeply committed to helping players reach their full potential. With years of personal experience in competitive basketball and a passion for coaching, I understand what it takes to succeed at every level. I focus on not just improving skills, but also building basketball IQ and mental toughness. My training sessions are designed to be challenging, engaging, and tailored to each athlete’s needs. If you really want to get better, you have to be committed and not just go through the motions, what you put into a training session is what you’ll get out of it. I believe in creating a positive, growth-oriented environment where athletes can push themselves to be the best they can be, on and off the court.

How can you help someone improve their game?
I can help someone improve their game by focusing on both the physical and mental aspects of basketball. I tailor training sessions to each athlete’s individual needs, whether it's refining skills, improving basketball IQ, or building mental toughness. Through personalized drills, feedback, and game situations, I help athletes develop a deeper understanding of the game and become more strategic players. I also emphasize the importance of hard work and dedication, athletes get out of training what they put into it. My goal is to push athletes to challenge themselves, build confidence, and ultimately reach their full potential on the court
