My approach blends strategic training with a supportive, fun environment, fostering growth on and off the court. For some background, I was a MN all state high school player when I graduated in 2016. I went on to play Division 1 basketball at the University of Denver where I was a 1st-team all conference selection & graduated in 2020.
