About Me:
I grew up around the game and have been playing or coaching my entire life. I played college soccer at Lake Tahoe Community College and now coach both at the high school and middle school level in San Luis Obispo. My style is simple: teach the game in a fun way, keep the environment positive, and help every player feel confident in their abilities.
How I can help you improve your game:
I help athletes improve their technical skills, decision-making, and overall confidence. Whether you need help with dribbling, passing, shooting, or game intelligence, I create sessions that target your weaknesses and elevate your strengths. My goal is to make you a more complete and impactful player.
What a typical training session looks like with me:
We start with a quick warm-up and ball-work, then move into focused technical drills tailored to your position and goals. Sessions usually combine repetition, game-like scenarios, and competitive challenges. You’ll leave each session feeling sharper, more confident, and clear on what to work on next.
Career summary and accomplishments:
Played college soccer at Lake Tahoe Community College Head coach at Laguna Middle School and San Luis Obispo High School Coached multiple seasons of youth and high-school level teams Developed players in all positions, from beginners to varsity-level athletes Known for strong communication, player development, and teaching fundamentals
Best coach I ever had:
The best coach I ever was my high school coach Leon. He pushed me to be disciplined but always kept the game fun. He focused on small details, believed in me, and taught me how to read the game at a higher level.
What athletes and parents should know about me:
I’m patient, encouraging, and committed to helping players grow at their own pace. I care about effort, attitude, and improvement—not perfection. I create a positive training environment where athletes feel supported, challenged, and motivated to get better every session.

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 find yourself needing to cancel or adjust your booking within 24 hours of your purchase, just let us know. We'll provide a refund - no questions asked. Your satisfaction is our top priority, and we're here to support your learning journey.
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!
