For over a decade, I have been playing basketball across the world, playing in countries such as Mexico, Spain, Italy, and many more. I am originally from Brazil, and this is where I began my basketball journey. I played D1 basketball in college for all four years and also worked with the youth during this time, coaching and mentoring them through various basketball summer camps. I have tons of necessary basketball experience with skill building, drills, conditioning, and game play at a near professional level, but also with character building and personal growth. I can also assist with workouts and personal training in order to build the required muscles and endurance needed to be the best player possible.
