Building mentally strong athletes for sport and life.
The difference between good and great performance is often mental. I help athletes train the psychological side of sport by developing confidence, composure, focus, motivation and resilience. With graduate training in Performance Psychology and years of experience in health and human performance, I help athletes learn how to stay mentally sharp and perform their best when the lights get bright and the pressure rises.

About Me:
I am a strength and conditioning coach and educator specializing in performance psychology, confidence building and mental performance strategies for athletes. I have my Master's degree in Health and Human Performance with emphasis in Performance Psychology. I am passionate about helping athletes build resilience, focus and confidence for competition and life.
How I can help you improve your game:
I help athletes improve their game by training the mental side of performance. Many athletes already have the talent and work ethic, but struggle with confidence, pressure, overthinking, mistakes or consistency in competition. I work with athletes to develop tools for focus, emotional control, self-talk, motivation, and visualization so they can trust their training and perform at a higher level when it matters most.
What a typical training session looks like with me:
A typical training session will be very individualized based on the athlete's sport, goals and current challenges. Sessions will often include discussion, performance analysis and practical mental skills that athletes can immediately apply to practice and competition. Sessions will last between 30-45 minutes. Athletes will leave the session will specific tools, exercises and strategies to practice between meetings so mental skills become part of their daily training routine.
Career summary and accomplishments:
I have been working at a community college since 2007 teaching different health and psychology classes, including performance psychology. I have worked with a variety of athletes from middle school to college aged and in a lot of different sports but emphasis has been on basketball, volleyball and hockey.
Best coach I ever had:
The best coach I ever had believed that performance started with mindset. Their passion for athletes was contagious and they consistently emphasized the power of positive thinking, confidence and resilience. They challenged athletes to believe in themselves before anyone else did, and that lesson has stayed with me throughout my career.
What athletes and parents should know about me:
I live in this world of performance psychology not just professionally, but personally as a mom of three busy athletes. I have been working with athletes since my time in grad school in 2000 and that experience has shaped my belief that performance and life skills are deeply connected. I love helping athletes grow in confidence, handle pressure and succeed in both their sport and their everyday lives.

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?
AU was created by former college and pro 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 + background check, 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!
