I am a former Division II softball pitcher looking to provide lessons with perso
I played softball for 11 years and although I have ended my collegiate career, I want to help girls of all ages be able to improve upon their skills and enjoy the game as much as I do. By personalizing lessons and focusing on mechanics for pitching, hitting, and fielding, I want to improve both the physical skills and mental game of those I work with.

About Me:
I competed at Southern New Hampshire University, a division II Institute that competes in the highly competitive Northeast 10 conference. During my time there, I was a key member of the pitching staff, contributing as both a starter and closer in critical playoff games, including several high stakes must win situations. While there I achieved pitcher of the week in the conference and we consistently made it to the playoffs during my time. The pitching staff the first two years consisted mainly of myself and one other girl and through that I was able to develop confidence and a leadership role because of the ample playing time and tough situations I was put into.
How I can help you improve your game:
I can help players improve their game mentally and physically. I put mechanics first and then work up to the larger aspect of the game. I figure out what each client wants and needs to work on then I have plenty of drills to isolate the mechanics that we are looking to fix.
What a typical training session looks like with me:
I recognize that each client has unique goals and needs so my approach begins with thoroughly understanding their individual objectives. In the case of pitching, I’ll assess whether their focus is on velocity, accuracy, or spin, and tailor a personalized plan of drills and strategies to help them achieve their primary goals. Additionally, I place significant emphasis on the mental aspect of the game, incorporating mental training techniques to help prepare players for in game situations, maintain a positive mindset, and build resilience as they develop skills. With this approach they are well rounded, both physically and mentally throughout their pursuit of their improvement.
Career summary and accomplishments:
I have extensive experience coaching softball, working with players ranging in age from 8 to 16. My coaching background includes both one on one private sessions and group lessons with athletes of varying ages and skill levels. Additionally, I’ve organized and lead clinics through my college, providing comprehensive instruction to help players improve in all aspects of the game. This experience has allowed me to develop a strong ability to tailor coaching techniques to meet the individual needs of each player, fostering both skilled development and a love for the sport.
Best coach I ever had:
My best coach I had was my high school Coach. She was honestly the toughest coach I had as well but her care for the game and each of the players was clear as she pushed us to work on basic skills of the game as well as getting in shape and working on the mental side as well. In high school I was constantly pushed to be better but my coach always made each girl feel recognized and as though they were a part of the team regardless of their role on the team.
What athletes and parents should know about me:
I put an emphasis on mechanics and the mental game. While skills are fundamental tricks to control nerves and staying present in the game can often be just as useful. When it comes to pitching I focus on throwing strikes and solid mechanics first and then building up the speed at a consistent rate. With hitting, I again focus on mechanics and then with my perspective of pitching as well I can help hitters with both sides in expecting pitches, sequencing of pitches, and the best plate approaches.

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.
