Hi there!
I’m originally from Baltimore, Maryland. I played Division 1 Field Hockey at Ball State University for 4 years and graduated this past May. I have been a member of the Puerto Rican National Team since 2020 and am currently training for my second Central American and Caribbean Games in Summer 2026. I'm excited to meet you and work together!
Although I primarily play as a defender, I have experience and knowledge in all positions. I believe understanding the game from every position is key to becoming a strong, well rounded player.
A typical training session with me looks like, learning and understanding what your goals are. I want to be able to tailor each session to meet your specific needs. I believe in mastering the fundamentals is essential, but I also enjoy introducing new skills that challenge and elevate you. Each player is unique, so I focus on finding the techniques and strategies that best suit your individual playing style.
Competed in the MAC Tournament with Ball State University (2022 and 2024)
Qualifying for Central American and Caribbean Games (2022 and 2025)
My club coach, Candice Russ, has been one of the most influential people in my field hockey career. She supported me through my club years and continued to mentor me throughout college. Her guidance has made a lasting impact.
I know what it feels like to want to continuously want to improve. Whether your goal is to make a team, earn more playing time, or take your skills to the next level, I'm here to support you and help you get there!

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.
