OBJECTIVE FOR PROGRAM:

To help young athletes develop strong basketball fundamentals by improving ball handling, shooting, defense, and conditioning, while also building mental toughness, confidence, discipline, and a strong work ethic both on and off the court.

BASKETBALL EXPERIENCE:

I have been around the game of basketball my entire life. Growing up, I was fortunate to be surrounded by the sport, with my father working as a business manager for an NBA athlete. Being around that environment helped me understand the dedication, discipline, and work ethic required to succeed at the highest level.

I played basketball throughout elementary school, middle school, high school, and college, continuing to develop my skills and knowledge of the game along the way. My journey also took me overseas, where I had the opportunity to play professional basketball in Uruguay.

Basketball continues to be a major part of my life, and I am still pursuing my professional goals while staying dedicated to improving my craft. Through my experiences, I am passionate about helping young athletes grow, develop their skills, and build the confidence and mindset needed to succeed both on and off the court.
