Hendersonville - All-Star Coach, Choreographer, Tumbling Instructor

He was born and raised in Memphis Tennessee in a family where athletics and other extra curricular activities played a major role in their everyday lives. Both his mother and sister were cheerleaders when they were in school. Being that his father was a football coach at the high school both his sister and brother attended, he found himself to always be around the cheerleaders. He began cheering when he was in the 7^th Grade at Snownden Middle School where he was the first and only male cheerleader in school’s history. After cheering there for two years, he went to competitive dance. He danced for an allstar team in Memphis, where he was given the opportunity to explore the world of choreography. He did choreography for East High School, Earle High School, Snowden Middle School, as well as many of the Hip Hop Boot Camps. Upon entering college at Tennessee State University, he was asked to tryout for the coed cheer squad. After making the team, his coach noticed that he had an eye for creative choreography. He was then hired to work his “Back to Basics” cheer camps where he choreographed routines for both middle schools and high schools that attended the camps. Since then, he has done choreography for Tennessee State University and McGavock High School. He continues to sharpen his creative eye by surrounding himself with people that are very creative and inspirational such as those at Prime Tyme Athletics.
