About
I played DI soccer at Temple University on a full scholarship where I graduated with my Bachelors in Kinesiology. From there I went on to play professionally in Puerto Rico for two years. During my time in Puerto Rico I realized I wanted to coach. Once my professional contract was up I decided to get into the coaching field. I started as the Volunteer Assistant Coach for the Women's Soccer team at Auburn University. I helped with a majority of the recruiting operations as well as the defense.
I was offered a full-time position as an Assistant Coach for the Women's Soccer team at the University of Nevada Las Vegas (UNLV). While at UNLV I was involved in recruiting, scheduling of games, heart rate monitoring, defensive side of the game, etc.
While at UNLV I decided I wanted to get back into the Power 5 and back into school. I was brought onto the Women's Soccer Staff at the University of Florida by Becky Burleigh. While at Florida I was a Graduate Assistant where my main focus was heart rate data/monitoring, strength and conditioning, planning training session, etc.
I was always told growing up if you find something you love you will never work a day in your life, soccer is that love for me. I love to watch the kids I train progress throughout the years. When they pick up a new skill and that little lightbulb goes off in their head it is such an amazing feeling for me and the athlete. I love to help people reach their potential and make them great.

Frequently asked questions
What is your typical process for working with a new student?
I think soccer is always bigger than the sport. When I train a new athlete I love to get to know them on a personal level. Not only does it create a trusting relationship but I have learned over the years the more the athlete feels cared for and noticed the more effort and time they will put in their craft.
With that being said I start off the session with some basic technical drills followed with some position training and ending with a conversation about what they are looking to get out of this experience. Asking them their strengths and things they think they need to work on!
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.
Each session is an hour long. We can go at whatever time works best for you and your superstar athlete. I am willing to do as many training sessions a week as you would like.
Each session is 50$.
What types of students have you worked with?
I have worked with athletes of all ages. From 1st graders all the way up to college athletes themselves.
What advice would you give a student looking to hire a teacher in your area of expertise?
Get someone who is experinced with the sport, not only coaching but playing it as well. Someone that you can trust and will do what is best for the athlete.
