About your basketball coach
As an aspiring basketball trainer with years of high-level playing experience, I’m passionate about helping young athletes unlock their full potential on the court. I’ve played at the collegiate level for Oglethorpe University, Union University, Labette Community College, and Cowley Community College where I developed not only my skills but also a deep understanding of the game. My mission is to share that knowledge with kids of all ages, focusing on fundamentals, confidence, basketball IQ, and the mechanics. Whether an athlete is just starting out or looking to elevate their game to the next level, I provide personalized training that builds strong habits and instills a love for the sport. Let's work together and allow me to take your game to the next level.
