I am a RSPA Certified Pickleball Professional. My racquet sports career started in tennis where I played high school and college intermural tennis. I went on to be a collegiate head coach, club tennis professional and tennis director at a country club. After leaving tennis for a professional sales career, I found I missed helping people enjoy a game and get some exercise. Pickleball is a fantastic game that offers great exercise, fun competition and is incredibly social. I teach for the fun
