From an early age, I tuned into the enchanting sound of the guitar in music, setting the stage for a lifelong love affair with strings. In the 5th grade, I delved into the world of classical guitar, laying the groundwork for my musical journey. High school offered a two-year guitar course, complemented by private lessons that further shaped my skills. My musical inspiration came alive through rock legends like AC/DC, Led Zeppelin, and RHCP, influencing my playing style profoundly. Venturing into fingerstyle guitar on acoustic, I expanded my repertoire to include pop songs. Currently, I thrive as a band member and delve into solo projects, all while finding joy in teaching and collaborative musical experiences. Join me on this musical journey, where the love for guitar transcends genres, and the pleasure of playing is shared with others!

I’ve been playing pickleball for four years and coaching for three, with consistent experience competing in tournaments. I’m on the court nearly every day and stay closely connected to the local pickleball community, especially in the Arlington area. Sports have always been a core part of my life—including basketball, soccer, and table tennis—but pickleball stands out as the most engaging, strategic, and social game I’ve played. As a coach, I combine drilling with live play, working alongside my students to develop solid shot mechanics, sharpen strategy, and improve decision-making under pressure. Beyond lessons, I help players plug into the local pickleball scene so they can continue progressing through games, leagues, and community connections.
