I’ve played soccer for a young age of 5 until high school, that’s when football became a love of mine from high school through College, basketball as a youth for 2-3 years, & I’ve been heavily involved in boxing for the last 5 going on 6 years. Since finding my desire to help others improve I would host workouts for football players in my free time at my local field working with all different experience levels. During the summer of 2017 I volunteered as a youth football coach for the Bridgeport Chargers for the age group 9-12 putting kids through drills, full workouts, teaching them how to improve at their skills positions which lead me into the field of peak performance training. Having trained a few kids & pre-teens in boxing giving them specific easy to grasp directions to build the confidence that it take to learn the skill of self defense. My goal has been to making exercise, sports, & learning simultaneously fun.

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.
