I began my tennis journey at age 5 in Sri Lanka, achieving top 5 rankings in singles and doubles while competing nationally and internationally, including representing Sri Lanka in the Junior Davis Cup. Transitioning to collegiate tennis at Salem State University, I played 1st singles and 1st doubles for all four years in NCAA Division 3. My achievements include Rookie of the Year, MVP, and multiple Player of the Year awards, contributing to two LEC conference wins and NCAA tournament appearances. Since 2019, I've coached at North Shore Tennis Club, focusing on junior development through skill drills and technique enhancement. I also coached summers at Eastern Yacht Club, working with all age groups and as a hitting partner to advanced players. I am an Assistant Coach for Salem State University's Men's and Women's Tennis Teams, continuing to inspire and develop athletes in the sport I love.
