"Great coach! Really nice guy clear and knowledgeable

With over 16 years dedicated to basketball, I foster player growth. I refine skills, enhance strategic thinking, and cultivate a love for the game in each athlete I guide. My approach blends focused training with an enjoyable learning atmosphere. As a collegiate student athlete I understand the hard-work and dedication that it takes to reach our athletic goals.

With experience in coaching, play-making, and being a main starter in high school varsity basketball, I've learned quite a bit about this sport. It's not just about what you do on the court, but off the court as well. Compatibility with others, and learning to work with those who have work to do is critical. Elite players work harder off the court than on the court.

I bring a championship mindset and years of on-court experience to every athlete I train. As a former collegiate standout and professional player, I was a 2x PCAC Player of the Year, 2x All-State performer, and helped lead Southwestern College to a state-best 50–6 record before earning a scholarship to Cal Baptist. There, I helped capture a PacWest Championship and an NCAA Tournament berth. After competing professionally in Colombia and earning my Master’s in Physical Education from Azusa Pacific, I began my coaching career at Southwestern College. During my time there, I helped lead the program to three PCAC Championships, was named PCAC Coach of the Year in 2020, and coached 40 All-Conference players, with over 30 earning scholarships to four-year universities—including multiple Division I and professional athletes. Now, I use that same drive and attention to detail to help players and clients elevate their game, build confidence, and unlock their full potential—both physically and mentally.
