Basketball, like any other sport, has the capability of opening many doors for one to be involved with the game. I was able to go from a middle/high school player to a Division 1 athlete and then ultimately a 13 year professional overseas. Knowing that I won't be able to play forever, I realized another opportunity for me with the game; passing on my knowledge. With I. J. U. Basketball, my aim is to teach the fundamentals of basketball up to advanced skill work, mental knowledge and proper work ethic that will lead to players becoming better basketball players.​
