Accomplishments
➕A dedicated and results-driven basketball professional with a well-rounded background as a player, coach, and youth trainer. With four years of international playing experience with the Wiha Panthers Schwenningen and five years of high school coaching, I bring a global perspective and deep understanding of the game. My foundation as a former NCAA Division II athlete at Slippery Rock University has equipped me with the ability to translate core fundamentals into advanced, competitive strategies. • Trained and developed a group of 20 youth basketball players (ages 8–15), focusing on individualized skill-building, team dynamics, and the foundation of basketball fundamentals to foster both on-court growth and character development. • Designed and led high-impact skill camps that emphasized shooting mechanics, footwork, ball handling, defensive strategies, and team play, helping athletes elevate their game and improve in all key areas. • Mentored young athletes both physically and mentally, instilling core values such as perseverance, sportsmanship, discipline, and teamwork, ensuring they developed as players and as individuals. • Customized training programs to accommodate diverse skill levels, ensuring each player received targeted, hands-on coaching and the personal attention needed to reach their full potential.

Beginner training plan
Your first lesson1️⃣ Start with a Friendly Introduction
• Greet them warmly by name.
• Ask about their basketball experience (if any) and what they hope to improve.
• Let them know my coaching style: “We’ll have fun, work hard, and focus on getting a little better each time.”
Start with a warm-up, then work on ball handling, some footwork, a bit of shooting, and finish with a fun challenge.
