I just wanted to say how thrilled my boys and I are with your training sessions! Both my 8- and 10-year-old are not only enjoying the workouts and weight sessions, but they’re also staying active at home—constantly doing the drills you taught them. I’m really impressed with their progress and even more so with their excitement to keep going. They’ve been begging me to book more sessions with you! We’re definitely looking forward to continuing with you throughout the year. Thanks again for your energy and dedication!

Hi Coach, I just wanted to express my sincere gratitude for the impact you’ve had on my son’s basketball development. He’s improved across the board since starting lessons with you, and it’s clear how much he’s enjoying the process. He absolutely loves your hands-on teaching style and mentioned he’s never had this much fun while being coached. I’ll be booking you for the rest of the year—thank you for everything you’re doing!

Thank you so much for coaching my daughter. Even though she had no prior experience with basketball, you've really opened her eyes and mind to the sport. She’s genuinely excited to be coached by you again and shared with me and my husband how much she appreciates the way you explain things so clearly and make the sessions fun. Hope all is well—we’ll be booking with you again very soon!

Thank you so much for working with my son during our visit this summer. You've taught him elite-level footwork and, more importantly, helped boost his confidence on the court. Me and my family truly appreciate the time, energy, and dedication you put into coaching him. We’re grateful for the impact you’ve had, and we’ll definitely be booking with you again on our next trip to Arizona!

How it works

Beginner training plan

Your first lessonAs a professional basketball player with experience competing at the highest levels, I've had the privilege of being coached by top-tier skills coaches, shooting coaches, and strength and conditioning experts. This diverse, high-level training has given me a well-rounded understanding of what it takes to excel at every aspect of the game. Here's how I can help someone improve their game: Skill Development: I can break down and refine individual skills like ball handling, shooting, footwork, and finishing at the rim. My training will focus on fundamentals, ensuring you build a strong foundation while also adding advanced techniques that will separate you from the competition. Mental Toughness: From my experience, I’ve learned the mental side of the game is just as important as physical skill. I’ll help you develop a strong mindset, teaching you how to stay focused under pressure, bounce back from mistakes, and maintain confidence no matter the situation. Shooting Mechanics: With the guidance of top shooting coaches, I can fine-tune your shot, ensuring your form is correct and your shot is consistent. Whether it’s improving your range, form, or shot selection, I’ll help you become a more efficient scorer. Strength & Conditioning: I’ll use my knowledge of professional-level strength and conditioning to improve your athleticism. From building strength to enhancing agility and endurance, I’ll tailor a program to keep you in top shape, improving your performance both on and off the court. Game IQ: Beyond individual skills, I’ll help you understand the game better. This includes reading defenses, making smarter decisions in the heat of the moment, and learning how to impact the game in ways that go beyond scoring, like passing, defending, and leadership. Customized Training: I’ll assess your strengths and areas for improvement, creating a personalized plan that focuses on your specific needs, whether you’re trying to develop your skills for college recruitment, improve your performance in games, or just take your game to the next level. With my experience and coaching background, I can offer a comprehensive approach that will accelerate your development and help you become a more complete player, no matter your position or goals.

Advanced training plan

Your first lesson1. Warm-up (15-20 minutes) Dynamic Stretching: Focus on mobility to activate muscles and prevent injury, such as leg swings, hip rotations, and arm circles. Ball Handling Drills: Start with basic dribbling exercises, such as stationary and moving ball handling drills (e.g., crossovers, behind-the-back, and two-ball dribbling). This gets your hands and mind engaged and prepares you for game-like movements. 2. Skill Development (30-45 minutes) Shooting Drills: Work on shooting mechanics, starting with form shooting and progressing to spot shooting (catch and shoot, off the dribble, etc.). Focus on consistency, footwork, and shot selection. Finishing Drills: Practice finishing around the rim with different moves—layups, floaters, and dunks. Focus on footwork, timing, and using both hands. Footwork and Pivoting: Exercises like jab steps, triple-threat position, and attacking the basket off the dribble. Ball Handling & Decision Making: Increase the intensity with full-court ball-handling drills, adding pressure and using different moves to beat defenders. This is critical for maintaining control under defensive pressure. 3. Game Situations (20-30 minutes) 1-on-1, 2-on-2, or 3-on-3 Scrimmage: These controlled competitive drills simulate real game situations. Focus on applying your skills in a fast-paced, high-intensity environment. Work on spacing, movement off the ball, and decision-making under pressure. Pick-and-Roll, Defensive Shell, or Offensive Sets: Run through specific plays or strategies, focusing on timing, communication, and execution. This helps refine basketball IQ and team play. 4. Strength & Conditioning (20-30 minutes) Core Strength & Mobility: Exercises like planks, Russian twists, and stability ball work to improve core stability for better balance and explosion. Plyometrics: Jumping drills (box jumps, lateral hops, sprints) to improve explosiveness and vertical leap. Conditioning: Full-court sprints or interval training to build stamina, ensuring you can perform at a high level throughout the game. 5. Cool Down (10-15 minutes) Stretching and Mobility: Focus on flexibility to prevent injury and increase range of motion, using foam rolling and static stretches. Recovery: Briefly go over any feedback, mental focus, or areas for improvement. Reflect on the session, and prepare for the next one. 6. Mental/Film Session (Optional) Watch game footage or breakdown specific plays to improve basketball IQ, recognizing tendencies, and learning how to read defenses and offenses more effectively. Summary: A training session is a comprehensive mix of physical conditioning, skill refinement, tactical application, and mental development. It’s all about maintaining a high level of intensity, focusing on detail, and making sure every repetition contributes to improving as a player. The session could last anywhere from 1.5 to 3 hours, depending on the intensity and specific goals for that day.

Accomplishments

➕I've been coaching since 2016, starting during my freshman year at Long Beach State. I would host late-night workout sessions for high school players in the city, putting them through intense ball handling and shooting drills, followed by competitive 5v5 games to practice the skills we just worked on. Additionally, I led summer camps at both Long Beach State and Simpson University, focusing on kids from 1st grade to 8th grade. My goal was always to teach the fundamentals in a positive, fun environment, ensuring that every player left with new skills, confidence, and a love for the game. I made it a priority to provide value to both the kids and their parents, guaranteeing they left satisfied with the lessons learned and the experience.
