Play Pickleball at Barnes Park

Pickleball has become my passion, and I love sharing that passion with others. I've been teaching for years, and it brings me joy to see my students develop their skills and love for the game.

"Addison is an observant coach who offers timely feedback and custom-made recommendations on how to build off players' strengths. I’m excited to learn how to level up as a singles competitor.

With a lifelong background in racket sports, including tennis, table tennis, and a passion for pickleball, I combine my experience as a competitive 5.0-level pickleball medalist and three Division 1 championships, and reaching the Southern California Semi-finals of CIF in tennis. A teaching professional at Braemar Country Club and Mika's Tennis Academy, a former Special Education instructor, registered behavior therapist, adaptive skills clinician, mobility trainer, and physical therapist aide, and I hold a Master’s degree in Special Education with a concentration in Applied Behavior Analysis, and a Bachelor’s degree in Kinesiology, and Biomechanics. Students have medaled in 2.5–4.5 and qualified for USAP Nationals. Let’s improve your game, reach new heights, and most importantly, have fun!
