About Me:
Working for the University of Arizona Men's basketball team for 4 years. Majority of my time included player and skill development training with guards, bigs, and forwards.
How I can help you improve your game:
My training includes tailored skill development, increasing basketball IQ, confidence & mindset training, realistic situational drills, and continuous progress tracking.
I'm a big believer in practice like you play (or want to play like).
What a typical training session looks like with me:
My training session will verify depending on the length of the session but will always include shooting drills and ball-handling drills. My training session is set up to build players into elite scorers and shot makers. I have drills in place used at the collegiate and professional levels that will allow for each athlete to score at each level regardless of where they are on the court. This includes finishing at the rim, floaters, back to the basket scoring, mid range, 3 point shooting, and more. I mix in ball handling during most drills to allow for realistic movement with the ball while trying to score during a real game. Yes, I will be playing defense as well to help give the training and drills a more realistic feel.
Career summary and accomplishments:
Working for the University of Arizona Men's basketball team for 4 years. Participated in 5 youth basketball camps as well as a skills coach.
Best coach I ever had:
The best coach I ever worked for was Sean Miller at the University of Arizona. He had an extreme passion for the game and brought intensity that heightened the competitiveness in everyone. His basketball IQ was off the charts and would spend countless hours finding ways to improve his coaching, while making every player on the team better.
What athletes and parents should know about me:
I'm extremely passionate about the game of basketball and love seeing the improvement of players through hard work and commitment. I believe in a holistic approach to training—combining skill development and mental toughness. I like to create a positive, supportive environment where athletes are encouraged to push their limits while also building confidence and resilience.
For parents, I understand the importance of investing in a well-rounded development experience for their children. I will be able to provide regular updates on progress, and I work closely with athletes to set achievable goals.

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!
