About Me:

With over 15 years of high-level volleyball experience, I’ve competed at the highest levels as both a Division 1 student-athlete and internationally in the UK, where I led my team to a BUCS National Championship. As a Setter, I bring a unique perspective to the game, with deep expertise in running both a strong defense and an aggressive offense. Trained and coached with Gold Medal Squared, one of the premier volleyball training organizations in the U.S., I specialize in developing athletes through strategic training programs focused on performance optimization, teamwork, and discipline. My coaching philosophy is centered on fostering a positive and growth-focused environment, allowing each player to unlock their full potential on and off the court.

How I can help you improve your game:

As a coach, I focus on tailored feedback and drills that are specific to the player’s position and skill level. My experience as a setter allows me to provide unique insights to both setters and defensive specialists, ensuring that players can run efficient offense and defense systems. Whether you’re looking to improve your serve, enhance court awareness, or strengthen mental focus, I provide individualized attention to help you elevate your game in every aspect.

What a typical training session looks like with me:

A typical training session with me is structured around the athlete's goals and current skill level. We begin with a dynamic warm-up and position-specific drills, focusing on technique and decision-making. This is followed by game-like scenarios to put the skills into practice. Throughout the session, we use video recording and analysis to provide real-time feedback, allowing the athlete to visually see their performance and make necessary adjustments. We conclude with a debrief to discuss what was learned and set clear goals for improvement in future sessions.

Career summary and accomplishments:

I began my coaching journey with Gold Medal Squared, the premier volleyball training program in the U.S., where I learned and implemented performance-driven strategies used by top-tier teams. My background as a Division 1 student-athlete and international player has shaped my coaching style, emphasizing mental toughness, skill mastery, and strategic gameplay.

Best coach I ever had:

The best coach I ever had was my college coach. He consistently pushed me to reach my full potential while also fostering an environment that encouraged growth. He allowed space for me to ask questions, seek feedback, and continuously work to improve outside of practice. The culture he built in our gym was exceptional, combining both mental and physical preparation that not only elevated our game on the court but also helped us grow as individuals off the court. His approach created a space for us to excel and instilled a lasting mindset of excellence.

What athletes and parents should know about me:

I have an immense passion for the game of volleyball, and my journey as an undersized setter is a testament to my determination and love for the sport. Despite the odds, I earned two full athletic scholarships to Division 1 schools and went on to play overseas with an athletic scholarship, completing my master’s degree in the process. My drive to excel in both academics and athletics is something I’m deeply passionate about, and I love mentoring young athletes on how to use volleyball as a tool to facilitate their education and growth.

I’m committed to being a resource on and off the court, whether it’s helping players elevate their game, connecting them with opportunities, or offering guidance on navigating the game of life. I’m here to support and encourage girls and boys that their dreams are possible and that the opportunities available to them through sports are endless.

Frequently Asked Questions

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.

AU was created by former collegiate and professional 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 and we proudly showcase a 10% acceptance rate, 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!
