I have over 20 years of coaching experience. Coaching is my passion and purpose in life. Developing people through sports and culture is what I was created to do and I love it! I started playing pickleball a little over 2 years now and I can’t stop playing. I love the community aspect of the game and how it brings all different types of people and skill levels together. Although I coach the sport I also play it at a high level. So I make my training/coaching sessions fun, interactive, thought provoking, and competitive. From youth beginner level to the adult 5+ DUPR level and all in between Id love to help you get better. Come rock out with me!!
