The best coach I’ve had is Coach Ryan, a devoted teacher and savant of the game of basketball. The skills and values I learned from his lessons have certainly translated into making me the player and coach that I am today.

Having over 10+ combined years of experience working with kids, I want parents to know that in all of our sessions, your child’s needs come first. I encourage my athletes to see the game of basketball for the values it holds— importance of teamwork, hustle, and camaraderie. My priority as your coach will always be to help you grow not just as an athlete, but as a person.

4 years coaching basketball at the JJV (5th and 6th grade), JV (6th and 7th), and Varsity (8th grade) level. 2+ years volunteer experience coaching mixed circuit (ages 6-18) 8 years coaching private clients with special needs

I specialize in focusing on raw skills to begin a training circuit (shooting, dribbling, passing etc.), then progressing into in-game skills and intangibles such as court awareness, screen actions, and defensive positioning. Each raw skill is developed during the introductory sessions, with most in-game skills beginning practice after the 4th/5th sessions based on previous experience.

The first step to beginning sessions with me is getting to know you as a player and as a person. Building a structured plan for your child’s development (evaluating skill levels in both raw skills and in-game skills/intangibles) allows me to analyze the areas of focus. I pride myself in helping your child sharpen their strengths and tackling their areas of improvement. Once their skill plan is decided, our sessions will usually begin with a short stretch, light cardio, and then skill development based on your own personal goals as they relate to your skill level. Then, we always want our sessions to end with a game, whether it be H.O.R.S.E. or a 1-on-1 scrimmage. No matter what, I’ll ensure that every session = having fun!
