Soccer Lover and State Champion
I’ve dedicated over 16 years to the sport of soccer, driven by a genuine love for the game and a passion for helping others grow. My goal is to support the next generation of players in reaching their full potential. With 14 years of competitive travel experience, 3 years at the high school level where my team won the state championship, my 2nd year with the team, and 9 years of coaching, I’ve developed a deep understanding of what it takes to improve. I’m excited to share that knowledge, whether it’s refining technical skills, building strength and conditioning, or developing the mental side of the game, to help players take their performance to the next level.

About Me:
I’m just a girl who loves sports. I chose to study Sports Marketing in college to deepen my knowledge and passion for all things sports. At the same time, I began coaching travel soccer at a local club, where I became the head coach of a U14 girls academy team.
Before that, I coached players ages 1–12 while competing in travel soccer myself. During this time, I also served as my high school wrestling team’s manager and worked as a Special Olympics track mentor.
Everything I’ve been involved in has been both fun and meaningful. Another way to channel my love for soccer and sports as a whole is by helping others grow along the way.
How I can help you improve your game:
I’m not just knowledgeable about the game itself, but also about what happens behind the scenes. Sports are about more than just playing, they involve building strength, improving your body, and developing the right mindset.
I focus on helping athletes strengthen all of these areas, from physical conditioning to mental performance, so they can become more well-rounded players. By developing every aspect of your game, I’ll help you take your skills to the next level.
What a typical training session looks like with me:
A training session with me includes a little bit of everything, technical work, strength training, and mental focus, all combined to create a fun and effective experience. By blending these elements, training becomes both enjoyable and valuable.
Each part plays an important role in helping you improve as a player. We’ll identify areas that need the most work and use specific exercises and drills to target and strengthen them.
Every session is tailored to you, your skill level, your goals, and your individual needs, so you can continue to grow and reach the next level.
Career summary and accomplishments:
I bring a wide range of experience, both on and off the field. I have 11 years of travel soccer experience, where my teams won many championships and came in first in league play, and 3 years of high school soccer, including a state championship win in my second year.
In addition to playing, I have 8 years of youth coaching experience and 2 years of travel soccer coaching. I also have 3 years of experience in physical training and 6 years of experience as a FIFA-certified referee.
This diverse background allows me to understand the game from multiple perspectives and better support player development.
Best coach I ever had:
The best coach I ever had was my U14–U17 travel coach. She’s the one who restored my love for soccer. I came from a team and a coach who had torn me down and taken away some of my passion for the game, but Coach Michelle changed that completely.
She didn’t just teach me how to be a better player; she taught me how to be a better teammate and a better person. She shared important life lessons with me, especially that great things come from hard work. And we truly did work hard.
I’m incredibly grateful for that experience because she inspired me to keep improving and ultimately become a coach myself.
What athletes and parents should know about me:
Hard work is mandatory, but in the end, it will always be worth it. You won’t just become a better player, you’ll grow in so many other ways. You’ll learn how to take care of your body, how to encourage and support others, and how to become a more well-rounded athlete.
Even though the work can be challenging, I’ll always make sure it’s fun. Yes, the game is serious, and it can shape your future, but it should always be something you enjoy.

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?
