I’ve been passionate about tennis for over 20 years, thanks to my father who introduced me to the game at a young age. I earned my coaching certification from The Professional Tennis Registry in 2021 and have since coached for Nike Tennis Camps, Smoke Rise Country Club, and offered private lessons. As a former Division II college player, I also volunteered at an afterschool program, where I had the chance to teach kids tennis alongside a local coach. This experience, along with four years of coaching at Reading & Requests, taught me the value of listening to students and using positive reinforcement to foster rapid improvement. In my lessons, I focus on mastering the six basic strokes, keeping score, proper hand placement, and understanding the rules of the game. My classes are designed to be dynamic, fun, and structured for maximum skill development.

"Gabby provides the perfect mix of technical expertise, encouragement, and fun. I really appreciate how she breaks down concepts and techniques in a way that's easy to understand and apply on the court. She's always patient (especially when I'm frustrated with myself!), creates a supportive environment, and encourages me to ask questions whenever something isn't clear. What really sets her apart is how much she challenges me to improve. Some of my favorite sessions are when she has me play up and hit with her, pushing me outside my comfort zone.
