I’m a 3× MBP HBCU All-Star and 3× All-Conference athlete whose game has always been built on speed, discipline, and consistent offensive production. I earned SIAC Freshman of the Year early in my career and later went on to lead NCAA Division I in On-Base Percentage, proving myself as a tough out at the plate. I’ve also been recognized twice as the HBCU Fastest Man with a 6.0-second 60-yard dash, which helped me become one of the most dangerous baserunners in college baseball.
In 2025, I was selected to compete in the HBCU Swingman Classic hosted by Ken Griffey Jr., one of the biggest stages for HBCU talent. Currently, I also stepped into coaching—serving as the Hitting Coach at Miles College, where I’ve helped college athletes develop their approach, mechanics, and confidence at the plate.
My career has shaped me into both a competitor and a teacher, and I carry that same energy into every athlete I train.
I help athletes take their game to the next level by teaching the same skills and mindset that made me a 3× All-Star, All-Conference competitor, and 2× Fastest Man in HBCU baseball. I don’t just run drills — I teach real-game application, speed strategy, hitting IQ, and explosive movement that most coaches can’t break down. My training goes beyond basics and gives players an edge they can’t get anywhere else — faster reads, smarter decisions, and more confident swings. If you’re ready to separate yourself, I’ll show you how.
A typical training session with me is designed to develop every aspect of an athlete’s hitting and mental approach to the game. We start with tee drills to focus on mechanics and consistently finding the optimal attack path, ensuring the swing is efficient and powerful. From there, we break down swings frame by frame to identify areas for improvement, emphasizing proper mechanics and adjustments tailored to each athlete.
Plate discipline and approach are key components of every session. I work with athletes on pitch recognition, understanding counts, and making smarter decisions at the plate, while building a mental mindset that is confident, focused, and resilient. Every session reinforces a strong work ethic, where we grind through reps, push limits, and hold nothing back to achieve measurable improvement. By combining mechanical precision, mental preparation, and relentless effort, my training sessions are built to take athletes to a level they can’t reach anywhere else.

Coach Marquan has been a major inspiration in my baseball journey. A former MLB player, he brought the experience and professionalism of the big leagues straight to our training. Every session with him was intense and detail-oriented—he taught me how to refine my swing, improve my speed, and master the mental side of the game. His approach wasn’t just about physical skills; he pushed me to develop discipline, focus, and a relentless work ethic. Watching how he carried himself as a professional and learning from his insights gave me the motivation and confidence to keep pushing, even when the game got tough. Coach Marquan didn’t just train me—he inspired me to play the game at my highest level.
Parents should know that I am not only committed to helping athletes improve their baseball skills, but also dedicated to guiding them in becoming better young men. I pride myself on being a person of strong character and unwavering moral values, and I strive to instill the same qualities in the players I work with. My coaching goes beyond mechanics, speed, and strategy—I focus on developing discipline, confidence, and a strong work ethic. When your child trains with me, they’re not just learning how to elevate their game; they’re learning how to grow into a responsible, driven, and resilient young man.
