From the time I first picked up a bat, the baseball diamond has felt like home — it has shaped who I am today. I was primarily an outfielder, though I also played corner infield and served as a designated hitter when my team needed power in the lineup. I was known for hitting like a bigger guy than I was, driven by a compact, explosive swing and strong lower-body mechanics.

Even with a stockier, muscular build, I prided myself on speed and agility. I had a quick first step, sharp footwork, and solid instincts that allowed me to cover a lot of ground defensively. Those years on the field taught me discipline, consistency, and how small details make a big difference. These are lessons that continue to guide how I train, coach, and mentor athletes today.

Coaching isn’t just about teaching the game — it’s about passing down the lessons I learned through years of dedication, setbacks, and perseverance. Throughout my playing career, I faced my share of injuries and challenges, each one teaching me something valuable about preparation, recovery, and mindset. I love working with athletes of all ages, especially those chasing the next level, because I want to help them avoid the same mistakes I made and get the most out of every moment on the field. My goal is to give them the tools, knowledge, and confidence to train smarter, stay healthy, and perform at their highest potential. Every athlete I coach is an opportunity to pay forward what the game has given me: lessons built through experience, resilience, and a genuine love for baseball.
