About
LionDrive Baseball was founded on a simple idea: help ballplayers of all levels reach new heights in baseball and life. Our fundamental approach to baseball and softball helps players in hitting, fielding, and throwing through a very sound fundamental approach and signature mental toughness training. Tell Me I Can't.
My favorite aspect of teaching hitting is setting the look on an athlete's face when simple concepts start to make sense on an academic and athletic level. It's so powerful, and I love it!

Frequently asked questions
What is your typical process for working with a new student?
Typically, we start with a 30-minute assessment (whether hitting, fielding, or throwing) to determine any skill gaps, areas of improvement/strength, etc. We will also determine very specific, measurable goals for our work.
After that point, we will typically begin with drills custom-tailored to help achieve said goals through fundamentals, mental toughness training, and increased strength of character.
Each session thereafter will be spent adjusting drills/work based on progress level.
What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
Do you have a standard pricing system for your lessons? If so, please share the details here.
No standard pricing, everything is negotiable and custom for each client.
How did you get started teaching?
Through a love of baseball, and passing on my knowledge. I have been a student of the game for 28 years, and have a deep passion for passing on what I've learned to others to help them succeed.
What types of students have you worked with?
All ages from 10-18 years old
Describe a recent event you are fond of.
Watching one of the freshmen from RCHS begin to understand how their swing works, and implement my advice to greatly improve their hitting.
What advice would you give a student looking to hire a teacher in your area of expertise?
Find a teacher with whom you are able to translate what they are teaching you into results. There are a lot of baseball teachers out there, specifically for hitting, and it's imperative that you find an instructor that can take their knowledge and explain it in a way that will help you make progress.
What questions should students think through before talking to teachers about their needs?
