Personal Statement

My goal is to be a D1 baseball player at a top academic university.  I am blessed with the athletic ability with the potential to be a top performer on my teams.  I train 6 days a week on hitting, fielding and weight training.  When I am not at team training, I individual train with coaches on my hitting and fielding skills and the rest of the time I am in the weight room to further develop my strength. 

I want to be a winner and this makes me very competitive.  I also know winning takes a lot of work so each practice, I focus on development and getting better.  I keep going so that I can become a champion.

On and off the field, I have been recognized as a leader who leads by example.  I encourage and cheer on my teammates.  I like to view my work ethic as a model for our team and play hard during practice and games.  I have a stong work ethic and I am dedicated to my results.  I have a deep knowlege of the game of baseball and continue to learn from my errors and successes.  

What I do off the field is important because that is who I am everyday.  I focus on my grades and work to get the best grades as I want to attend a top D1 university.  In addition to self-study, I work with a tutor twice a week to help me achieve my goals in the classroom.  I know my grades are important to getting into a top university.  Business is my focus as enter high school and I have already registered for Introduction to Business and Sports Management as my electives.  I also volunteer at the local food bank and plan to use my free time to help others improve their lives.  I attend church each week with my family and have enjoyed making new friends at church.


Thank you

  • Welcome to the new age of baseball instruction! Baseball is a traditional sport. For years, baseball fundamentals were passed down without dispute from “experts” in the game to the youth level. Now in the digital age, we found that what was previously taken as fact was, in many cases, largely in error. Elite Baseball Training has embraced, and pushed ahead in, the necessary merger between technology and baseball. At the beginning of my coaching career, computers and digital video were just starting to be used in baseball. As technology advanced past video into 3D models and force plates, Elite Baseball Training became home to the second Bertec Force Plate in existence. Pairing this with a KVEST Biofeedback Device and a Diamond Kinetics Bat Sensor, we could now tell the entire story of energy creation, transfer and output during the swing inside our BioTech Cage. This allows us to precisely cater every development plan to the needs of each athlete. This process starts with a Movement Screen and Strength Plan. Traditionally, baseball coaches have tried to fix every issue with a bat or ball when in reality, a majority of issues are caused by underlying physio issues. We can identify these problems through a quick screening process and with any screen, you will receive a 12-week strength plan based on the results. When I started only about 33% of major league teams utilized high-speed Digital Motion Analysis and the 3D models and force plates we use today didn’t even exist. Recent trends have shown that professional teams are embracing this new age and in 2018 Justin Stone officially announced a partnership with the Chicago Cubs as a Biokinematic Hitting Consultant. What this means is that we have been providing advanced instructional aides, that have just recently become common place for multi- million dollar players, as the standard method of instruction for all of our clients – from the little league players to college and professional athletes. Given the growing trend in merging baseball and technology, we believe this approach gives our clients an advantage on the field and prepares them for the long-term future success in the game of baseball. My career in coaching began as a Division I assistant coach at Indiana State University. I moved to Chicago and began my career as a private baseball instructor at a training academy affiliated with the Chicago White Sox. The next chapter of my career with Elite Baseball Training will focus on leveraging years of baseball experience and technological expertise in order to provide highly progressive instruction to players of all ages and experience levels and teaching baseball fundamentals in a new, logical way. At Elite Baseball Training, we are pushing the envelope on the next age of baseball instruction. Our instructors use technology to teach baseball in the most efficient way possible, and although many of our instructors played professionally and collegiately, we do not rely on the information that was passed down and considered true for decades. We believe we are the frontrunners in this area. In fact, other instructors, coaches and players nationwide seek us out as a source of knowledge for a better way of teaching. Why? Because we never stop learning ourselves, and with our sophisticated resources, we believe that we have better opportunities to learn than others do. Elite Baseball Training is also home to one of the nation’s most talented travel team programs. Our Elite teams travel across the country seeking the highest level of competition. Elite players have been recruited to schools all over the country and the work we do as an organization makes recruiting our players easy. We have seen nearly half of our Elite players commit to Division I schools before their junior season; this is unprecedented for a northern program. We also, house Premier level teams that compete in events across the Midwest. All of our teams, Elite and Premier, receive the same movement screenings and swing testing I do with pro clients and are coached by some of the best in the game. Baseball instruction is our business, and it is a business we take very seriously. However, we are also in the business of helping elite players fulfill their dreams. At the youth level, we are growing self-esteem, passing on a passion for baseball, and helping parents connect with their kids through the great medium of sports. At the end of the day, we love what we do, and seeing kids enjoy the game and advanced players push themselves to continue to achieve their goals, drives our commitment to the sport and providing quality, progressive instruction. See you on the field!
