As an international student-athlete at Nova Southeastern University, I believe my diverse background and unique experiences make me an excellent fit for Lessons.com. Having played professionally in Italy, I understand the intensity and dedication required to reach the highest levels of competition, and I’ve experienced firsthand the challenges athletes face. This insight allows me to connect with young players and offer them the guidance they need to improve.

Additionally, my experience training kids has given me the skills to break down complex techniques in ways that are easy for them to understand, all while keeping training engaging and fun. I know how important it is to create a supportive learning environment, one where athletes feel motivated and confident to push their limits.

Fluency in four languages—English, Spanish, Italian, and French—gives me the ability to communicate with a diverse group of players and parents. This multilingual skillset is especially valuable for an international platform like Lessons.com, where athletes from all around the world are coming together to improve. It allows me to connect with them in their native language, making the learning experience more personal and accessible.

Having navigated the demands of being both a student and an athlete, I’ve developed excellent time management, discipline, and adaptability. These are essential qualities when working with young athletes who are juggling school, training, and other commitments. I understand the importance of making the most of every session, and I’m dedicated to helping players improve through targeted, personalized training plans.

coaching resonates with me deeply because it mirrors the kind of individual attention and mentorship I’ve benefitted from throughout my career. I’m excited about the opportunity to be a part of Lessons.com and to help shape the next generation of athletes by providing them with the tools, guidance, and motivation they need to succeed.
