I have been playing soccer since I was 8 years old. My passion led me to play and compete in the Central Jersey Finals for Hopewell Valley Central High School and furthermore become a 4 Year starter at Moravian College (Moravian University). After college, I acquired my certification from the USSF - United States Soccer Federation to be a licensed coach, and NASM - National Academy for Sports Medicine to be a certified CPT/PES/CES. I currently use my qualified background to help athletes become performance ready. Under my training, athletes become faster, stronger, and fitter. Additionally, I am able to help prevent injuries and accelerate any recovery process through my love of strength and conditioning. In my philosophy, I like to take a different approach then most in the realm of youth athletics. I’m attempting to change the game by taking a holistic approach to the student-athlete, focusing on the student as much as the athlete. The sole mission is to foster participants in both the athletic and academic platform with the idea of the highest levels of personal success to be achieved. This is not just a temporary fix; it is a lifestyle change and a way of life. I’m committed to community service, social change, and a better tomorrow! My holistic training approach develops athletes not only technically, but also physically, and tactically. I have helped propel athletes of all ages and skill levels - from 5-year-old recreational players to 22-year-old pros. I am committed to my craft and want to spread the joy and love that has given me so much life!

My experience with Putnam Valley’s Basketball program and DreamHack Sports Games has provided me with a strong foundation in coaching, organizing, and mentoring. I developed superior communication skills at DreamHack in Copenhagen, Denmark, having worked with a diverse international organization. This opportunity allowed me to teach people from different backgrounds and bring them together for a common goal. As a coach for Putnam Valley, I consistently build my players' skills and enthusiasm during practice sessions and games. Not only do I want my team to become better players, but I also want to assist them in becoming well-rounded individuals. My experiences have instilled in me the importance of promoting student leadership and the development of exemplary student-athletes who strive for competitive excellence, academic achievement, and a commitment to service. I am also a certified personal trainer through NASM and certified in CPR/AED. I would be open to assisting the athletes in the gym and the kitchen as I studied sports nutrition through a minor in food studies.

I hold a Bachelor’s degree in Exercise Science and am a former Division 2 Track and Field All-American. My expertise lies in speed and jump training, and I’ve had the privilege of working with athletes at various levels, from high school to collegiate, as well as adults. With a background in football, basketball, and track and field, I understand the importance of tailored training to maximize performance. Whether you're looking to improve your speed, agility, or explosiveness, I can help you reach your athletic goals. Let’s get to work!
