About Josh

With 18 years of basketball experience, I bring a wealth of knowledge and passion for the game to my role as a basketball trainer. Throughout my career, I've had the privilege of working with notable figures such as MSU star player Travis Walton and Carlton Valentine, the father of ex-NBA player Denzel Valentine. My experience extends beyond training, having played AAU basketball for 10 years and serving as a three-year varsity player, where I was captain in both my junior and senior years, the leading scorer in my senior year, and earned all-area honors along with an honorable mention all-state recognition. I hold a degree in Sociology and History from the University of Michigan, which has given me the tools to effectively connect and communicate with individuals, fostering a positive and productive environment for athletes. In addition to my playing background, I maintain a consistent workout routine, ensuring I stay fit and sharp both physically and mentally, to lead by example for those I train.
