About Me:
I have been playing sports since before I can remember! I grew up playing softball and basketball.
I went off to college to pursue coaching and teaching. I graduated with a Bachelor's in Health and Physical Education K-12. During that time, I was an assistant coach and head coach for multiple softball teams from 12-18 year olds.
I also found a love of strength and conditioning which lead me to a Master's degree. I trained athletes for years and loved it!
Since then I have worked inside gyms, focusing on mindset-driven coaching.
I am still an athlete myself! I played organized sports all through college and grad school.
I've competed in CrossFit, Olympic Weightlifting, and running.
Once an athlete, always an athlete
How I can help you improve your game:
Sport is 85% mental.
You have hours and hours of lessons, practices, skill work.
Your mental performance could be a missing piece, an edge over competition, the thing that sets you apart to coaches.
Here's what you can expect when working with me:
higher confidence
clarity in decision making
clearing mental blocks
more focus
higher emotional intelligence
improved performance, leadership, and teamwork
What a typical training session looks like with me:
Sessions are 30 minutes on Zoom
Our first session will be getting to know each other and getting clear on goals.
After that, sessions will be tailored to specific needs.
Career summary and accomplishments:

Best coach I ever had:
The best coach I ever had was my most recent coach. I am a long distance runner, olympic weightlifter, and dabble in CrossFit.
While we worked hard, our conversations were mostly about my mindset and how to manage it.
I am a huge believer that your mindset is the key to unlocking potential, and she was the first person to coach me that way.
I learned so much from her that I will take with me forever.
What athletes and parents should know about me:
Hello! I am so glad you are here.
My approach to mental performance is coming with years of experience and knowledge working with a diverse group of folks.
It is rooted in dozens of course and tons of personal research in psychology and topics surrounding it.
No one is the same so working together will be tailored to your specific needs and areas of growth.
Athletes, I am here to guide and lead you to your specific goal. We are going to have fun and learn a lot along the way!
Parents, I will give your athlete a safe, encouraging space to grow and to learn. They'll be able to take these tools and resources with them for the rest of their lives, not just in sport.

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?
