​

I have had the opportunity to work with some of the best coaches and skills trainers in the game of basketball. Playing at the University of Wisconsin, I was able to learn from coaches Bo Ryan and Greg Gard who teach and develop the fundamentals of basketball better than anyone around. They prove that you can be a successful basketball player no matter what your size or athleticism is. After my college career, I was able to work with NBA coaches, NBA skills trainers, and European professional coaches to learn the necessary skills to grow as a player.
