Former professional outfielder for several years (Yankees & Mariners organizations, 5th round draft pick) and University of South Carolina starter—where I hit .321 with 8 HRs and 18 SBs in my junior year. Now, I’m passionate about passing on what I learned at the highest levels: elite hitting mechanics, outfield defense, speed development, and the mental side of the game. Whether you’re a youth player building fundamentals or a high school/college athlete refining your skills, I provide personalized, high-level lessons tailored to your goals. Let’s work hard and elevate your game—book a session!

For two decades, I've been sharing my love of baseball and helping athletes reach their full potential on and off the field. My coaching combines proven techniques with a focus on individual growth, fostering a fun yet challenging learning environment. Let's step up to the plate together and hit a home run!
