I used to hate pickleball—until I played it. Now, I warn people: if you don’t want another addiction, don’t start! After about 2.5 years, I've reached a 3.5-4.0 level in pickleball and a 4.5 in tennis. I teach introductory pickleball and coach individuals and groups at levels up to 3.3, specializing in helping beginners and even those who have never played a sport. My passion is to spread the love for pickleball, whether through those who have never played - entry-level tournaments, clinics for all ages, or kids’ summer day camps. To Win, Yes! But More than just winning, I coach to inspire mental, strategic, and mentoring growth both on and off the court.
