My goal is to help athletes reach their full potential through tailored training programs that focus on mental preparation, self-confidence and maximizing athletic abilities. In my 14 years of coaching football, I have provided dedicated mentorship to ensure players not only improve their game but also build the confidence necessary to succeed on the field.

I have coached tackle football for the past 14 years at various high schools in Western New York, and I have also coached girls' flag football for the last two seasons.
Throughout my coaching career, I have gained extensive experience working with every position group, including running backs, linebackers, wide receivers, defensive backs, and both offensive and defensive linemen. My record includes three undefeated seasons and a Section VI championship.
With my extensive coaching background, I deeply understand the mental components associated with each position. I am confident that I can bring out the best in your athlete through positive reinforcement, capitalizing on their strengths while diligently addressing their weaknesses.
We will begin with the fundamentals of the game. For offensive players, our training will focus on stance, route running, catching, handoffs, and blocking. For those on the defensive side, we will cover alignment, assignment, and defending against both the run and the pass.
I have 14 years of experience coaching in a team setting, and I am looking forward to returning to an individual coach setting. I currently hold all necessary certifications as required by the NFHS handbook.
The best coaches I have ever had are the ones I have worked with side by side. Regardless of whether I agreed with their philosophy, I always learned something valuable from them.
It is important to me that everyone involved in my training program understands my approach to player development, team culture, and the expectations I have for our student-athletes both on and off the field. My coaching style focuses on mastering the basic fundamentals of football. I believe that if you can't do the little things right, you'll never be able to do the big things right.

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.
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.

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.
