Developing skilled players, confident leaders, and resilient people.
As a former state champion at Archbishop Carroll, Division I player at Drexel, and six-year professional basketball player overseas, I've experienced what it takes to compete and win at every level. My coaching combines high-level skill development with mentorship, helping athletes improve their game while building confidence, leadership, discipline, and a championship mindset. I know basketball is about more than what happens on the court. After retiring from professional basketball in 2019, I learned firsthand how important it is to prepare for life beyond the game. I help athletes not only reach their athletic goals but also develop the character, resilience, and leadership skills that will serve them long after their playing careers. My goal is for every athlete I coach to leave more confident, more prepared, and better equipped to succeed in basketball and in life.
How I can help you improve
Whether you're just starting out or preparing for the next level, I'll help you develop the skills and habits that translate to game success. We'll focus on ball handling, shooting, footwork, decision-making, basketball IQ, and confidence. Just as importantly, I'll help you build the mental toughness, leadership, and consistency needed to perform when it matters most.
A typical training session
Every workout is designed with a purpose. We'll start with fundamentals and movement, then progress into game-speed skill development tailored to your position and goals. Sessions include ball handling, shooting, finishing, footwork, live reads, and competitive drills that simulate game situations. I also take time to discuss mindset, leadership, and what it takes to improve outside of our workouts so athletes leave with tools they can apply every day.

What athletes & parents should know
When you train with me, you're getting more than basketball instruction—you're getting a mentor who genuinely cares about your growth. I believe in building confidence through hard work, holding athletes accountable, and creating an environment where they can improve without fear of making mistakes. My goal is to help every athlete become a better player, a stronger leader, and a more confident person, while preparing them for success both on and off the court.

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!
