About Me:
I am a certified (NASM) strength and conditioning coach, sport performance specialist, and experienced multi-sport coach. I hold a degree in Kinesiology (BAS) and a Master’s of Education (MA) in Teaching. I am passionate about impacting others’ lives through athletic performance training.
Originally from Dallas, Texas, I have extensive coaching experience. I have worked with IMG Academy (Bradenton, FL), Osceola High School (Kissimmee, FL), St. Thomas Aquinas (Ft. Lauderdale, FL), and West Boca Raton Community High School (Boca Raton, FL).
With over 27 years of experience in the health and fitness industry, I have honed my skills and expertise in coaching and performance training.
How I can help you improve your game:
I can help you enhance your sports performance by providing comprehensive and effective training programs that encompass strength and conditioning, speed, agility, quickness, plyometrics, and proper stretching techniques. These techniques will not only help prevent injuries but also accelerate your recovery.
What a typical training session looks like with me:
A typical training session with me begins with a proper warm-up, followed by core and balance training. Then, we move on to resistance training and any necessary sport-specific training drills. Finally, we conclude the session with a proper cool-down that includes stretching. My training program is periodized and tailored to the athletes’ goals, ensuring proper progressions throughout the program.
Career summary and accomplishments:
Throughout my career, I’ve had the privilege of working at some of the most esteemed institutions in the country and training some of the most talented athletes in the nation. I’ve coached and trained numerous athletes, helping them secure opportunities to compete at the next level, earn collegiate scholarships, and even land NIL deals. My coaching journey has been incredibly rewarding, providing me with invaluable experiences and knowledge that have propelled me from assistant coach to head coach and athletic director. My passion for coaching has allowed me to make a positive impact on others’ lives, leaving a lasting legacy that I’m proud of.
Best coach I ever had:
The best coach I’ve ever had was actually myself. Growing up without a close relationship with a coach motivated me to become one myself. Pursuing and maintaining a career as a coach has always been challenging, and I’ve had to motivate, reassure, and coach myself to stay the course. Constantly reminding myself of my expectations with those I coach is crucial. It all starts with me. I must admit, I am the best coach I’ve ever had. This keeps me focused on my purpose.
What athletes and parents should know about me:
Athletes and parents should be aware that I am driven by purpose and passionate about training athletes. My track record demonstrates a level of success achieved through commitment, consistency, and dedication. With the right mindset, we are destined for success.

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!
