I grew up in Milwaukee, Wi. We had limited resources, so I spent most days and nights shooting hoops in the backyard with my dad and brothers. I’d go out there and pretend I was Jordan hitting fade aways or work on Ray Allen's non-stop moving along the baselines, trying to master his footwork when he shoots. Add Steph Curry in that mix and you've got my favorite players!

​

From a young age, my dad helped me develop a “Never let them see you tired or hurt” mindset. That became a driving force in my basketball career throughout high school, college, and shortened pro career. I was always determined to out-work, out-hustle, and out-think my opponent, which is how I train and coach my students.

​

Basketball has always been more than a game for me. I developed important life skills both on and off the court that I carry with me today. My goal is to pass these skills on to my clients and players.​
