Growing up, I dreamed of playing in the NBA. Like many young athletes, I had the passion and work ethic - but I didn’t always have access to the right tools, training, or guidance to maximize my potential.
That experience became the foundation for a bigger mission: helping athletes train smarter and unlock the best version of themselves.
I studied Human Performance and Entrepreneurship at the University of Southern California and have spent more than 18 years as a Strength & Conditioning Coach and Sports Performance Trainer, working with athletes from the youth and high school levels all the way to collegiate, international, and professional basketball.
Through years of training athletes, I saw a major gap in basketball performance development: most training tools weren’t designed specifically for how basketball players actually move.
That’s why I created Betterball - a patented, portable basketball resistance training system built to improve explosive power, movement efficiency, balance, strength, and game-speed performance through sport-specific movement patterns.
Today, Betterball is trusted by trainers, programs, and professional athletes because it was built for one purpose: helping athletes train in ways that truly transfer to the game.
No matter how good you are, you can always get better.
Now let’s get to work.
