Who is the best coach you ever had and why?
The best coach I ever had was Coach Jackson, a former military veteran with a deep understanding of both sports and discipline. His 20+ years of experience in basketball and football made him an expert at breaking down complex skills and making them accessible. He not only focused on improving physical performance but also instilled a mindset of resilience, teamwork, and leadership. Coach Jackson's approach was never about taking shortcuts—he demanded excellence, but always with the understanding that life’s balance was just as important. His guidance shaped not only my athletic abilities but my character, and I carry his lessons with me every day.
What should athletes and parents know about you?
I’m not just about training hard; I’m about training smart and building well-rounded athletes. I’ve had the privilege of playing and coaching basketball and football, so I truly understand the dedication required to excel in both individual skills and team dynamics. But beyond the games and the workouts, I believe in the power of discipline, resilience, and having fun along the way.
As a coach, I’m all about creating a supportive, positive environment where athletes feel empowered to push their limits and grow. I’ve walked the path myself and now focus on guiding others to do the same—whether it’s in sports, strength training, or in life. Above all, I’m a father who knows the importance of being present and supportive in my kids’ journey, and I’m committed to bringing that same energy to every athlete I work with. Let’s work hard, but let’s make sure we enjoy the process together!
