How I can help you improve your game:
I can help someone improve their game by focusing on a few key areas:
Fundamentals and Technique: I’ll break down the core skills needed for success in baseball—batting, fielding, pitching, base running—and teach proper mechanics to help you build a strong foundation. Every great player starts with mastering the basics.
Mental Toughness: I know how critical mindset is in sports. I’ll help you develop resilience, focus, and confidence to stay sharp under pressure, whether you're on the mound, at the plate, or in a clutch moment.
Game IQ: Baseball is as much about strategy as it is about skill. I’ll teach you how to read the game, make smarter decisions, and anticipate plays to elevate your awareness and understanding of every situation.
Physical Conditioning: I’ll help you improve strength, speed, and agility through specialized training designed for baseball athletes, ensuring you’re physically ready to perform at your peak.
Work Ethic & Discipline: With my background, I can guide you through the dedication it takes to train like a collegiate athlete. Consistency and discipline are key to sustained improvement, and I’ll push you to be your best every day.
By combining personalized coaching with real-world insights from my five years in collegiate baseball, I’ll help you take your game to the next level and build the confidence to succeed both on and off the field.
What a typical training session looks like with me:
A typical training session will start off with a dynamic warmup to get the body loose and ready for baseball activities. After the body is loose I will consult with the player to see how the body is feeling to asses any limitations on throws and reps. After the assessment I will proceed to have the player throw then to hit/pitch and work on drills and mental skill work that the player needs improvement on. I will then proceed to have the player do defensive drills to stay sharp defensively and lastly work on running mechanics and then analyze the players performance on the session so the player could work on what he needs to improve on.
Career summary and accomplishments:
Coached one on one with middle school and High school baseball players throughout my time in college over summer and winter break.
Best coach I ever had:
The best coach I ever had was Gary Sheffield, he taught me the mental warfare of how to hit for power and hitting for contact. He taught me that the success in the game of baseball is majority mental and it can significantly help you if prepared mentally as well as physically.
What athletes and parents should know about me:
As a former collegiate baseball player, I understand what it takes to succeed both physically and mentally. I’m not just focused on developing skills; I also prioritize building discipline, resilience, and a strong work ethic. Whether you’re looking to improve performance, gain a deeper understanding of the game, or prepare for the next level, I offer personalized coaching that combines expert technique with real-world experience. Parents can trust that I’m committed to guiding their athlete not only toward success in the game but also in life, instilling values that will last a lifetime

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.
What if I don't love the first lesson?
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.
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 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!
