Coach Andy grew up playing basketball until injuries ended his playing career. He still wanted to stay around the game, so he transitioned to coaching. While being an assistant coach, Andy fell in love with the player development aspect of the game. He began training players while he was in high school.

Coach Andy has coached at the high school level as well as for numerous club teams. He has experience both coaching teams and providing individual skills training. Andy has trained players of all ages and skill levels. He is dedicated to helping players reach their goals on and off the court. Andy has learned valuable lessons throughout his playing and coaching career that he loves to pass on to the next generation of hoopers.

Coach Andy spent time in Los Angeles during the summer of 2019 assisting in NBA workouts alongside his mentor and NBA skills trainer, Drew Hanlen, where he learned new strategies, techniques, and drills to use with his players to help elevate their game even more.

 
 
Andy has been in my NEXT mentorship program for almost a year and is a great resource for players of all levels. He cares about helping players improve and ensures that he does everything in his power to help them get their desired results.
