I’m a 3.8 DUPR player, and what makes me a great coach is that I keep it fun 🤩! If you’re not having fun, you won’t want to play. With me, lessons are fun, safe, and focused on helping you grow—both on and maybe even off the court. I enjoy working with players of all ages and skill levels, but I specialize in helping new and entry-level players (2.5–3.0) build confidence and fall in love with the game.

"This lesson was helpful, especially since Jessica took the time to simplify topspin movements which I’d been struggling with. She was very patient as I learned to use it more effectively. I still need work to become more consistent with my shots but I definitely feel more confident about hitting topspin at different areas on the court.
