My softball journey spans 14 years, filled with invaluable experiences and accomplishments. I spent all four years of high school at Hamilton High, where I proudly played on the varsity team and contributed to our success on the field. Over the years, I’ve had the honor of playing for some incredible teams, including Fever, Hotshots, Wildfire, and Killer Bees, each of which helped me develop as both a player and a teammate. A key highlight of my career was being selected for the prestigious Scout All-American games and skills contests, where I had the opportunity to showcase my talent among some of the top athletes in the country. After high school, I was recruited to play outfield and pitch at Harding University. Today, I continue my love for the game by participating in a co-ed slowpitch league in Gilbert, Arizona. Through hard work, dedication, and a deep passion for softball, I’ve been fortunate to achieve many milestones that have shaped me into the player I am today.
I can help you improve your softball game by focusing on three key areas: skill development, mental toughness, and game strategy. By focusing on these areas, you’ll improve your technical skills, gain a deeper understanding of the game, and develop the mental toughness necessary to compete at a higher level. Together, we’ll ensure you’re always ready for the next challenge!
A typical softball training session is designed to be dynamic and focused, balancing skill development with conditioning to ensure you improve all aspects of your game. We will start with a dynamic warmup and then jump into skill-specific drills which could include, hitting, fielding, pitching, or baserunning. This is all determined by what you want to focus on! We will then end on some conditioning and agility then a cool down and reflection!
My coaching experience with the Scout All-American program has been incredibly rewarding and transformative, both for me and the athletes I’ve had the privilege to work with. In this competitive environment, I focused on developing high-level skills, refining technical aspects of the game, and fostering a strong mental approach to performance. With an emphasis on individualized coaching, I was able to help athletes identify their strengths, work on their weaknesses, and prepare for the next level of competition. The Scout All-American platform also allowed me to collaborate with other experienced coaches, which allowed me to further expand my coaching philosophy and continuously improve my approach. Seeing my players grow, succeed, and gain recognition at the national level has been one of the most fulfilling aspects of my coaching journey!
Coach Joel was an incredible influence on my time on the 14U Wildfire team, and his coaching style left a lasting impact on my love for the game. He could balance discipline with encouragement, always pushing us to be our best while maintaining a positive, supportive atmosphere. It was his passion and dedication that truly ignited my love for softball. Coach Joel taught me the importance of teamwork, mental toughness, and having a strong work ethic. Thanks to Coach Joel, I not only became a better player but also developed a deeper appreciation for the sport that continues to drive me today.
As a coach, I bring 14 years of playing experience, including time spent at Harding University, where I gained a deeper understanding of the game and what mental toughness really means. As a Christ follower, my faith is at the core of my coaching approach, guiding how I inspire athletes to grow in character, teamwork, and integrity. Coaching has always been my passion, and I have been eager to step into this role to help athletes not only improve their game but also build resilience and self-confidence both on and off the field. For me, it is not just about winning, it is about empowering players to reach their full potential, instilling a love for the sport, and shaping character that will benefit them far beyond the field.

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.
The AU guarantee (refund policy) has you covered! If you determine the coach isn't a good fit after your first lesson, let us know within 24 hours and you're eligible for a refund. We will also be happy to recommend another coach - be sure to contact our support team.
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.
