Morse-Kelley PlaygroundTennis Venue in Somerville, MA

I’m passionate about fostering a love for tennis in players of all ages and skill levels. My decade of experience, coupled with my background as an experienced player, allows me to create engaging and effective training programs tailored to individual goals. As an ambidextrous player, I’m able to demonstrate and coach from both the forehand and backhand sides naturally, which gives students a unique visual and technical advantage when learning stroke mechanics, positioning, and shot development. In addition to tennis, I’ve played hockey and baseball throughout my life, which has given me a deep understanding of athletic movement, discipline, and cross-training techniques. I often integrate elements from those sports—like agility drills, hand-eye coordination work, and strength and conditioning regimens—that translate exceptionally well on the tennis court. Let’s work together to elevate your game!

Hey everyone. I’ve had over 30 years of playing high level and 2+ years of coaching experience. A former National Champion (U14–16) and State Champion (U16–18), I also competed at the collegiate level and served as a university team captain. I teach all levels and I specialize in player development of all ages, focusing on stroke production, footwork, consistency, and confidence on court. I also focus on technical excellence .

"The clinics are organized and high-energy, with constant rotations and very little waiting. My son has developed more consistent strokes and a much stronger technical foundation.
