TNBA Career

I have been serving as a program director for TNBA Milwaukee since 2016 when I finished up my own playing career. Under TNBA Milwaukee I plan and teach shooting clinics, skills camps, summer leagues, and personal basketball training in 1-on-1 and small group settings.

My favorite part of doing what I do is the relationships you build with players and families. When you coach someone to a higher level of success in basketball you will be appreciated. They will love you for it and call you coach for the rest of your life. Being able to make lifelong relationships because of basketball is awesome.
