Pickleball may be the fastest-growing sport in America, but it's also a game of strategy and finesse. I'm a 4.0 pickleball player with 2 years of experience in pickleball, but 30+ years of coaching and mentoring other athletes. I specialize in beginning to intermediate level players. I enjoy introducing new players to pickleball and helping define the intermediate player's skill level. My patient personality and passion for teaching make me an ideal coach for players looking to improve their game. Let me help you to find enjoyment in the game that's so many others have become addicted to.
