For the past eight years, I've cultivated a passion for boxing and mixed martial arts in students. I'm currently 5-1 in my professional MMA career (my last fight was in the UFC Contender Series). Coming from a small city in India, I wasn't naturally athletic, but through my growing understanding of technique, athletics, and biomechanics, I fight at the highest levels. I blend time-tested techniques and concepts with personalized training, getting people to really love martial arts and boxing the way I do.

I provide personalized tennis coaching for kids, beginners, and intermediate players looking to improve their technique, consistency, footwork, and confidence on court.

With experience coaching in India and playing club tennis at the University of Massachusetts Amherst, I bring both competitive playing experience and patient coaching into every lesson.

My teaching philosophy is that you must have fun. If studying guitar feels like a chore, this won't work. I like to meet students where they are, both overall (what's the music you love!) and how they feel week to week. I've played guitar since I was 14, and I love the instrument not only because it rocks, but also because of its rich history and its standing as an art object. I write guitar-focused journalism for magazines like Premier Guitar & Fretboard Journal.

I have over 20 years of experience teaching, coaching, and mentoring youth athletes in both academy and club soccer environments. Throughout my career with organizations such as DC United Academy, Weston FC, Capital FC, and Chicago FC, I have worked with players ranging from early childhood ages through high school and collegiate-bound athletes.
