Tournament winner that has been competing for years and 4.1 DUPR rating. Retired and playing pickleball almost everyday. My coaching style is suited to those that are either beginners or looking to break into the competitive scene. I take a calm approach to explain the game and the nuances required to be consistent. I have worked with students that are just trying to get started and those that are looking to win their first tournament (I've had former students win tournaments after just a few lessons of working together!) Let's improve your game.

"Nathan gives each lesson 1000% with his uplifting attitude, intensity, and positivity. I have seen improvements in my game.

Nathan is by far the best.

•About me (golf) My name is Noel Sims. I am a professional golfer located in Phoenix, Arizona. I am 28-years old and have been playing the game since I could walk. I have been competing in golf tournaments from ages 3-current and have played in some elite events as a junior golfer, amateur golfer and professional golfer. While finishing my junior career, I was ranked the #1 African-American in the nation and top 240 in the world on the JGS rankings. I played 1-year at South Mountain Community College where I was apart of a NJCAA National Championship team in 2016 and finished my collegiate career at Alabama State from years 2017-2021 (redshirt year at SMCC and a Covid-19 year at ASU). I was a consistent starting at both programs and have a lot experience of playing different styles of golf. I turned professional in 2021 and have made 2/2 cuts at the 2021 Outlaw Tour Wigwam Red Classic and the 2023 Arizona Open (haven’t played much professional due to finishing my Master’s Degree while also working after my collegiate career). • About me (education) I have an extensive passion for helping others reach their true potential. I have a Bachelor’s Degree in Communication Studies and a Master’s Degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling. My passion for others goes farther than just helping others in a room, but also outdoors!

"I studied musical theatre and voice with Ms. Elizabeth for several years starting at age 6. She prepared we so well for the world of theatre by teaching me not only technique, but the proper morals and lessons we should take away from doing theatre. She directed shows with the perfect balance of kindness and business so that every kid felt encouraged but also determined and driven. In musical theatre class, I was given excellent training for singing and dancing at the same time. I learned how to be creative, think quick, and apply all of my knowledge to performing. I learned how to sing properly from a young age without hurting my voice. She is able to drill both vocal and dance technique while keeping a positive and creative environment. Without the training I recieved from Ms. Elizabeth I would not be where I am today!
