Hey, I’m Coach Dex — a former college offensive lineman and current varsity football coach who’s passionate about helping athletes reach their potential. I specialize in working with offensive and defensive linemen, focusing on footwork, technique, strength, and football IQ. Whether you’re a youth player just learning the game or a high school athlete trying to level up, I’ll meet you where you’re at and build a plan that fits your goals. I earned a full scholarship to play at the University of Sioux Falls after grinding through junior college at Laney College (as seen on Last Chance U), so I know firsthand how far hard work can take you. I currently coach at Heritage High School and am also working toward my PE teaching credential because coaching and teaching are what I love. Sessions with me are upbeat, detailed, and built around confidence and repetition. If you’re ready to put in work, I’m ready to help you move people against their will.

"I never played line before, but Coach Dex gave me a shot and showed me how to do it right. Now I’m actually excited to get in the trenches. He made the work fun, and I’ve improved a lot in just a few weeks.

A former collegiate athlete at the University of Texas at San Antonio (UTSA), I bring a deep passion for the game, strong leadership skills, and firsthand experience at the Division I level. During my time at UTSA, I developed a high football IQ, a strong work ethic, and a commitment to excellence on and off the field. I am now pursuing a career in coaching to share the knowledge, discipline, and values I gained through years of competitive play. I believe in developing athletes both physically and mentally, focusing on fundamentals, accountability, and team culture. My goal is to positively impact players’ growth while helping the program achieve success at every level. I am dedicated to building relationships, earning trust, and preparing athletes to compete with confidence and integrity.
