I am a former NCAA Division I player who has taught a plethora of kids, teens and adults to play this great game more competitively. I've always been passionate about tennis, and my journey has taken me to some incredible places. I played Division I tennis in college, competing in both singles and doubles, and even reached the finals of the 1984 Olympic Trials. Those experiences taught me the value of hard work, dedication, and the thrill of competition. Today, I still love the game and am always looking for ways to improve my skills and share my passion with others.

Youth players
Working with kidsI am teaching kids from age 4 through age 16, currently and each of them are improving their skills with each twice a week lesson.
Working with teenagersWorking with teenagers gives me the chance to take them to the next level and often reach their goal of making the varsity team during high school or even prepping them for local tournaments and then potential college play.
All five students I have taught in the past have all made their varsity tennis teams.
