Sharpen Skills. Build Confidence.
As a player, I was a three-time captain and earned both Academic All-American and All-American honors before playing at nationally ranked Chapman University. Those years taught me leadership, discipline, and a deep respect for the game.
I bring that same focus to coaching. In California, I was Youth Director for Westlake Village Lacrosse and Offensive Coordinator for the varsity team. After moving to New York, I coached Middle School Girls at The Chapin School and continue to run private lessons.
I’ve worked with players from grades 2–12, helping beginners master the basics and guiding advanced players to think, further developing their lacrosse IQ, approaching the game strategically. My coaching philosophy is simple: focus on fundamentals, strategy, confidence, and fun.
I’m now pursuing my master’s in Special Education at CUNY Hunter College. My goal is to work with both gifted and severely disabled students, two ends of the learning spectrum, and combine my passion for teaching and coaching to help students and athletes reach their full potential.
