How I can help you improve your game:
I am a firm believer in learning through experience, fearing failure is not good for baseball, it is very crucial in learning. My philosophy on baseball is that it provides us with some of the best life lessons we will ever receive, as we learn how to deal with criticism, understand failing will not result in the end of the world, and know how beneficial working together is. My teaching will also educate kids on warming up properly before competing on the mound or in the field, as it is essential in being able to play at the best level.
What a typical training session looks like with me:
It will begin with a simple dynamic warmup, followed by a static stretch. For older kids, there will be a band routine that is taught by me after involving some plyo balls, if they have used them before. Light catch will be had and then they will step on the mound and start throwing. After mound work, there will be another band routine and light stretch to help recovery. Lastly, a brief summary of the session to instill what they learned during the lesson and how to make the strides to improve their skills.
Career summary and accomplishments:
This past winter, I spent two weeks teaching little kids the game of baseball at my local training facility for winter break. I also participated in multiple summer camps ran by my high school, along with a fall baseball camp ran by a close friend and hitting coach.
Best coach I ever had:
Coach Matt Varango (V-Dog)
He has been apart of my life since freshman year and I've learned more about pitching with him than anyone in my career. He is truly one of my greatest friends and mentors. He was always a resource for me, not just in baseball but for my life, and is one of the reasons I decided to pursue the Ivy League.
What athletes and parents should know about me:
I was born and raised in New Jersey and have two little brothers, a freshman and junior in high school. From living with them I have good patience and know how to deal with little kids. At the University of Pennsylvania, I currently plan to study Economics and am a freshman enrolled in the College of Arts and Sciences.

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!
