About
I have over 20 years of basketball knowledge. I played college basketball at a NAIA D1 for 3 years. I have been a student assistant coach at the boy’s basketball high school level for 2 years and have been around the program for 4-5 years. My strongest skill has always been handling the ball. With a great understanding of ambidexterity, court vision, compound moves, and footwork, I can have you/your child running circles around the competition!

Frequently asked questions
What is your typical process for working with a new student?
In an individual setting I like to tailor the workout specifically to the individual’s skill set and use my experience and knowledge to help take them to the next level.
I believe ball-handling is the foundation to success as a basketball player
- One Ball Drills
- Two Ball Drills
- Ball Handling w/ Resistance (bands, gloves, etc.)
- Incorporating the ball handling into game-like scenarios
Shooting: Learn to be a threat from anywhere on the floor
- In Close: Different finishing moves (layups, floaters, step-through, etc.)
- Mid Range: Pull-Up Jumpers, Proper Footwork, Secondary and Tertiary moves
- Beyond 3: Stationary (lots of repetition), coming off screens, off the dribble, pick & roll scenarios, transition moves into shots
What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
For 6+ years I have done many private training sessions with both individuals and small groups of 2-6 players that are driven to get better. Also, I have worked at many different youth basketball camps in the last 8 years, including volunteer coaching at a number of college camps, as well as assisting a hand full of high school coaches.

How did you get started teaching?
A basketball coach must determine the right mix of players who can fill guard, forward and center positions, including bench players who might have to play more than one position. The coach must create a mix of players who can start right away and players he can develop into future starters.
