Unlock your performance potential by embracing mental skills training.
Growing up as a competitive dancer, I understand the joys and pressures that come with performing. I have a Master's degree in Sport, Exercise, and Performance Psychologyfrom the University of Wisconsin-Green Bay. Psychology and therapeutic techniques grounded in research provide the foundation of my work. I lead with curiousity, empathy, and compassion for those I work with. I prioritize athlete well being and support them through the ups and downs of performing. I help athletes explore the parts within themselves that either help or hinder performance and guide them as they work to strengthen the mental side of their game. Let's work together to build resilience and perform as your best self!
How I can help you improve
I act as a guide that supports athletes on their journeys to growing as a person and an athlete. I help athletes notice their strengths and build upon them. Together, we create performance plans to help increase confidence and performance preparation. I assist athletes in developing individualized coping and energy management strategies to help athletes meet the demands of their sport. I also support athletes as they navigate coming back from an injury or transitioning into retirement.
A typical training session
I spend the beginning sessions building a relationship with the athlete. I learn about them as people and their performance contexts. I like to do either values identification or goal-setting exercises to help guide the process of working together. Sessions consist of education on relevant concepts according to the athlete's performance concerns or interests. Through a mixture of activities and discussions, I work with the athlete on bringing awareness to where they are at mentally regarding the skill. I provide a space to practice and apply the skills in session. We debrief athlete experiences related to performance and their emotional states in those contexts. Athletes must practice their mental skills outside of sessions, just as they do with their physical training.
Career & accomplishments
While I am beginning my professional career, I bring experience working with dancers, D1 collegiate runners, youth skateboarders, and marketing students. Each athlete I work with brings me closer to obtaining the Certified Mental Performance Consultant (CMPC®) certification through the Association for Applied Sport Psychology.

Best coach I ever had
One of the best coaches I've had was my archery coach. He was approachable, kind, and supportive through my successes and setbacks. We were able to laugh at mistakes and I felt like I could perform as my authentic self. He knew when to step in to guide me and when to let me take the reins during a tournament. He helped foster both the development and enjoyment of the sport.
What athletes & parents should know
I can connect with indiviuduals quickly, and I will always be myself. I will likely root for the athletes as much as their guardians do. I spend much of my time outside of sessions fostering my own development and preparing materials to give athletes the best I have. I am so grateful that I get to do this work and know such wonderful people.

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.
How do rescheduling, cancellations, and lesson credits work?
Good Fit Guarantee — If your first lesson isn't the right fit, we'll move your lesson credit to a new coach. No hassle.
Easy rescheduling — Cancel or reschedule up to 4 hours before a lesson, no questions asked.
Coach no-shows — You'll be fully credited and we'll help you find a replacement.
Flexible credits — Unused lessons last 12 months and can be used with any coach on the platform.

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 college and pro 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 + background check, 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!
