Train like a pro: elite WR skills, mindset, and consistency
As a former Wake Forest wide receiver and Philadelphia Eagles player, I bring high-level experience and a detail-oriented approach to every session. I focus on route running, ball skills, and football IQ while building confidence and consistency. My goal is to create a competitive but positive environment where athletes can develop fundamentals, understand the game, and translate their training directly onto the field.

About Me:
I’m a former Division I wide receiver at Wake Forest and spent time with the Philadelphia Eagles. During my college career, I became the program’s all-time leading receiver and served as a two-time team captain. I’ve competed at a high level and understand what it takes to prepare, perform, and improve consistently. I’m passionate about helping athletes develop their skills, confidence, and understanding of the game while creating a positive and competitive training environment.
How I can help you improve your game:
I focus on the details that separate good players from great ones. That includes route running, footwork, ball skills, and football IQ. I tailor each session to the athlete’s level and goals, whether that’s learning fundamentals or refining advanced techniques. I also emphasize consistency, discipline, and confidence so athletes can translate what they learn in training directly into game performance.
What a typical training session looks like with me:
Each session starts with a dynamic warm-up and movement work, followed by position-specific drills focused on ball drills, footwork, and route running. We then progress into game-like reps that emphasize timing, catching, and decision-making. I provide real-time feedback throughout and keep the session competitive and high energy. We finish with a quick review of key takeaways so athletes leave with a clear understanding of what to build on.
Career summary and accomplishments:
Former Division I wide receiver at Wake Forest (2019–2024) and Philadelphia Eagles (2025). Two-time team captain and Wake Forest’s all-time leading receiver. All-ACC selection and multiple-time Academic All-ACC honoree. Competed and trained at the highest level while developing a deep understanding of offensive systems, receiver play, and preparation.
Best coach I ever had:
The best coaches I’ve had were Coach Kevin Higgins, my wide receivers coach at Wake Forest who has been coaching for nearly 50 years, and Coach Aaron Moorehead, my wide receivers coach with the Philadelphia Eagles, who played five years in the NFL and has nearly 20 years of coaching experience. Both were detail-oriented and held players to a high standard, but what stood out most was how they put the player first. They emphasized building strong relationships with the guys they coached, creating trust and accountability that translated directly to performance. That approach is something I carry into my own coaching style.
What athletes and parents should know about me:
I take pride in being reliable, prepared, and fully invested in every athlete I work with. My goal is to create a positive, structured environment where athletes can improve, gain confidence, and enjoy the process. I communicate clearly, show up with energy, and focus on helping each athlete reach their individual goals both on and off the field.

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.
