Former collegiate and professional basketball player with over 10 years of coaching and performance training experience. I specialize in basketball skill development, athletic performance, and mindset training designed to help athletes elevate their confidence and overall game. As the founder of Just Elevate Yourself, my approach goes beyond basketball, focusing on discipline, work ethic, leadership, and long-term growth both on and off the court. Every session is built to develop smarter, stronger, more complete athletes prepared to compete at the next level.
I help athletes improve their basketball IQ, confidence, skill set, athletic performance, and overall conditioning through game-speed training focused on real results. From ball handling, shooting, footwork, and finishing to strength, speed, mobility, and mindset development, every session is designed to help athletes move better, compete harder, and elevate their game on and off the court.
Each training session is designed to be high-energy, detailed, and game-focused. We begin with movement preparation and dynamic warm-ups to improve mobility, activation, and injury prevention. From there, athletes move into skill development work including ball handling, shooting, finishing, footwork, and decision-making drills performed at game speed. Sessions also include athletic performance training focused on speed, agility, conditioning, balance, and overall explosiveness. Every workout is tailored to the athlete’s age, skill level, and goals while emphasizing confidence, discipline, and consistency throughout the process.

Founder of Just Elevate Yourself, a brand built around discipline, confidence, leadership, and athletic development on and off the court. Specializes in basketball skill development, game IQ, footwork, shooting, ball handling, conditioning, strength and performance training, and mindset coaching.
Known for high-energy training sessions that combine real-game application, attention to detail, accountability, and performance-based development to help athletes elevate their overall game and confidence.
One of the biggest influences on my basketball journey was my AAU coach, Anthony Lewis, whom I played for in Baltimore with Cecil Kirk. Coach Lewis coached and developed high-level players including Rudy Gay, Jack McClinton, and Kim English, among others. He pushed me to compete at a higher level every day and helped instill the toughness, discipline, confidence, and “dog mentality” that still shapes the way I train and coach athletes today. That experience taught me the importance of accountability, work ethic, and bringing intensity to every workout and every opportunity.
Athletes and parents should know that my goal is bigger than just improving basketball skills. I believe in developing complete athletes through discipline, confidence, accountability, and hard work both on and off the court. Every training session is designed to challenge athletes mentally and physically while building real-game skills that translate into better performance and greater confidence.
I expect effort, focus, coachability, and consistency from every athlete. In return, athletes receive high-energy training, attention to detail, honest feedback, and an environment focused on growth and development. Whether an athlete is just starting or preparing for the next level, my mission is to help them elevate their game, mindset, and overall approach to life through basketball.

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.
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.
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!
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.
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.
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.
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.
