VS Basketball Training
About
I'm a long time basketball fan with a true love for the game. I started playing at the age of 10 and still play to this day. I've coached AAU leagues, Boys & Girls Clubs, YMCA, & After school programs. I also am a trained referee which allows me to give correction & instruction pertaining to the knowledge of the game.
I enjoy every aspect of basketball. I really enjoy seeing people improve not only on the court but witnessing character development in life.

Frequently asked questions
What is your typical process for working with a new student?
First, I test overall physical abilities. VS drills are designed to measure speed & endurance, strength, jumping ability, coach ability, coordination and general knowledge of the game.

How did you get started teaching?
Growing up I didn't have coaching outside of regular team basketball practice. Most of the skills I've acquired occurred when I had the desire to improve individually which led me to study the game. I love to give back and provide insight.
What types of students have you worked with?
Age groups I have the most experience with are middle & high school students.
Describe a recent event you are fond of.
Playing basketball with a teen at LA Fitness. I gave a kid encouragement and told him to be more confident and to avoid second guessing himself. This then lead to ongoing coaching.
What advice would you give a student looking to hire a teacher in your area of expertise?
Whatever it is that one pursues in life, always look for ways to enjoy yourself, be yourself, and be a better you than the day before.
What questions should students think through before talking to teachers about their needs?
1. Am I certain I really want to go forward in this area?
2. Can I finish what I start and trust the process?
3. Am I willing to work hard to achieve greatness?
4. Am I humble enough to receive direction?
