My vast Engineering, Mindfulness & Table Tennis (aka, Ping Pong) backgrounds merged with intense passion for quality Pickleball -- has taken me from local courts to a 5y USAP-membership competing on a global stage.

As your coach, guide & mentor -- my decades of experience will be instrumental in helping you develop your skills & strategy, no matter your current level. Looking forward to bringing the fun & safety -- converting any sedentary challenges into joyful fitness opportunities.•° More strategic for Minor League TT, https://spindex mltt.com/sign-up to compete in our Austintacious™ club starting Apr'25!

Johann & I can do these advanced drills much better than anyone I have tried so far.
I have to thank him for pulling me into Pickleball & coaching a mature Tennis specialist with Table Tennis chops!
