""My daughter plays USTA tournaments and we were looking for someone who could take her to the next level technically without rebuilding her from scratch. Dylan assessed her in one session and identified two things previous coaches had missed entirely. He's clearly trained at a high level himself and that shows. He doesn't guess, he knows. In just a few months she's already winning matches she would have lost before.”
