Frequently asked questions
What is your typical process for working with a new student?
I always ask about client's goals and what they would like to see as a result of the sessions, and then tailor the sessions according to their abilities and immediate needs. I explain the “why” and details behind what we do so both player and parent can continue the growth process outside of our sessions.
What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
Coached at the high school level. Won D2 state title as an assistant coach for Lincoln Hornets in San Diego. Worked with multiple players on all levels, with some having played college and one who is currently in the NBA.
