About Me:
I have played sports since I was very young. Sports I played over the years include football, basketball, baseball, and track. With my biggest passion and hobby being hockey. I started playing hockey when I was 3-4 years old traveling around the country playing tournaments. When I wasn't traveling, I participated in summer leagues acted as bench coach and assisted in summer camps.
How I can help you improve your game:
I can help you improve your game at all levels. No matter the skill level hockey revolves around five key areas skating, stick handling, shooting, passing, and game knowledge. I will help with all these aspects in all hockey scenarios. In addition to training regiments outside the rink. To help improve balance, cardio and strength building.
What a typical training session looks like with me:
A typical session is based on what you are looking at improving on. Each session will start with figuring where you are at from skating, shooting, passing, and stick handling. I will focus on your weaknesses and what tweaks are needed to improve. Doing a rundown on fundamentals, an obstacle course, and game scenarios.
Career summary and accomplishments:
My accomplishments include playing AAA travel, finishing with multiple first place trophies, being awarded the best defensemen, and most improved player. In addition, I have been chosen as captain multiple times. Numerous times I have been one of the leading scorers on the team. I have played all positions on the ice center, wing, defensemen, and goalie. I have even scored multiples goals in one shift. I even played in the Hershey Bears area.
Best coach I ever had:
The best coach I ever had was my travel hockey coach. He taught me everything from how to understand the game and basics of the game that allowed me to become the hockey player I am today. From how to train and how to prepare. The fundamentals are what makes players great. What allows them to be great. He allowed me to be great.
What athletes and parents should know about me:
Athletes and parents should know about me is that I am very focused on making sure the fundamentals of the game are followed. This is because everything revolves around it.

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.
