About Me:
I started my career in middle school at Charlotte county day school, where I was a first team all conference player and two year captain. I committed to Sewanee in 2020, and was a four year starter for the mens lacrosse team. We made it to the NCAA tournament my sophomore year and won the first tournament game in my schools history. I was named all conference, two of my four years, and was selected captain my senior year. I totaled 80 points in my career, without. freshman season due to covid. I was on the SAA honor roll for academics all four years.
How I can help you improve your game:
With 13 years of experience playing both middy and attack, I can help with dodging, shooting or finishing around X. My specialty is working with attackman on the crease or behind the net.
What a typical training session looks like with me:
Depending on what the athlete is looking to work on the practice plan can be flexible. Working on fundamentals, and helping develop their game, to get tot he next level. Adding dodges to their repertoire or working on specific game scenarios.
Career summary and accomplishments:
Volunteered with my old club team helping to lead practices and coaching.
Best coach I ever had:
The best coach I ever had was my high school coach, who was a legend in the lacrosse world. He would always push us to use our left hand, and make sure we were versatile players, in order to be successful at the next level. One thing he always emphasized was the love for the game, and how important creativity was to being a good lacrosse player. He let us play freely and never shamed players for trying something new, even if it didn't work.
What athletes and parents should know about me:
I have been playing lacrosse my whole life. I was undersized coming out of high school, and was overlooked by many coaches because of my size. I used this to fuel me to work harder and be successful at the college level. I am currently a masters student at the Georgetown McDonough School of Business, but have always wanted to get back into coaching and the sport of lacrosse.

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!
