About Me:
I'm a UNCW Exercise Science graduate with a passion for helping athletes build confidence, strength, and long-term success. My background includes soccer coaching, lacrosse coaching, sports performance training, personal training, and ocean rescue. I believe athletic development is about more than performance-it's about building healthy habits, resilience, and confidence that carry over into everyday life. My goal is to create meaningful relationships with athletes and help them reach their full potential both on and off the field.
How I can help you improve your game:
Every athlete is different, which is why I focus on individualized coaching tailored to your goals, strengths, and areas for improvement. Whether you're looking to become faster, stronger, more explosive, improve movement quality, or gain confidence in your sport, l'll create a plan that helps you make measurable progress while keeping training challenging, enjoyable, and goal-oriented.
What a typical training session looks like with me:
Each session begins with movement preparation and a dynamic warm-up to get the body ready to perform. From there, training is designed around the athlete's goals and may include speed and agility work, strength development, power training, conditioning, injury prevention, and sport-specific drills.
Every session finishes with recovery and coaching feedback so athletes leave knowing exactly what they improved and what comes next.

Best coach I ever had:
The best coach I ever had was Ben Janaway. He started Proactive soccer camp up in providence Rhode Island. What made him different wasn’t just his knowledge of the game—it was the way he connected with every player and made them believe in themselves. He created an environment where hard work, accountability, and confidence went hand in hand. Ben taught me that being a great athlete is about more than talent; it’s about consistency, effort, and the mindset you bring every day. His passion for developing players both on and off the field had a lasting impact on me and continues to influence the way I coach today. I strive to bring that same energy, encouragement, and commitment to every athlete I work with.
What athletes and parents should know about me:
I care deeply about building trust with both athletes and parents.
Communication, consistency, and effort are important to me, and I want every athlete I work with to feel supported throughout their journey. My focus goes beyond improving athletic performance-I want athletes to develop confidence, discipline, and habits that will benefit them long after their playing days are over. My goal is to be a positive influence and someone athletes can rely on as they continue to grow.

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!
