I’m a former Division 1 scout player for Florida State University, where I was also a finalist in the NCBBA dunk contest and earned 1st Team All-American honors. In high school, I was a state runner-up in 6A and received multiple all-county defensive player and All-Star selections, along with being named Most Improved Player of the Year. My journey in basketball has been filled with exciting challenges and achievements!

Alejandro’s extensive experience being a leader and member of many athletic teams, including some I have been on, have shown to be quite useful in the way he communicates and adapts to the needs of his team, both as a coach/mentor or a teammate.

Ale is the epitome of hard work beats talent when talent fails to work hard. He is relentless in everything that he does and his endeavors as an instructor are no different. He is about everything that he teaches which makes it easy to follow

I had a great experience with Alejandro as a first time user on this website I was a bit skeptical, but helped me feel comfortable and motivated. His knowledge was also very advanced and I cant wait to continue my lessons with him.
