- I think If he wasn't prone to injury Kawhi Leonard would be the best basketball player in the league right now.
- I believe that sports has a wellness aspect that can be further developed to better benefit both youth and adults.
- I'm from Coney Island, Brooklyn, home of the "point gods".
I started off playing basketball in middle school at Coney Island Prep charter school. I then transferred to John Jay school for Law in Park Slope where I played high school basketball.
I began my coaching and instructing career at the YMCA where I was also a floor trainer in the fitness center. At the YMCA I worked with ages 11-18 years old helping many athletes develop in to better players and individuals. I then transitioned to after school and community school programming with Roads to Success working with grades K-8, bringing out the best in kids athletically, mentally, emotionally and socially.
I am passionate about helping the youth meet and exceed developmentally appropriate expectations regarding their emotional, mental, athletic and social progress.
I am currently a mental health and human services major at Kingsborough Community College who will be transitioning soon to a senior college to pursue a bachelors degree in social work. I aspire to see to the development of the youth not only as athletes but as well rounded people.
