My story: My sister gifted me a portable pickleball net during COVID, and within one hour of playing, I was addicted. For someone with a lifetime in competitive other sports, pickleball clicked immediately. The strategy, the soft game, the community, it was unlike anything I’d experienced in other sports.

What I’ve discovered is that everything I’ve learned from decades of elite competition across sports translates directly to what holds intermediate pickleball players back. 

The fundamentals of reading angles, positioning under pressure, communicating with a partner, and executing in tight situations are universal. And I coach them every session.

My approach: I keep things fun and high-energy, because you learn faster when you’re actually enjoying yourself. But there’s a plan underneath all that energy. I won’t just tell you to hit a cleaner dink or a better third shot. I’ll show you why it works, when to use it, and how it fits into the rest of the point. Once the “why” clicks, you stop second-guessing yourself out there and start making the smart play on instinct. 

So, whether you want to improve your fitness, develop your skills, compete in tournaments, improve your DUPR, or simply have more fun on the court… I’ll help you play with confidence and consistency while preventing injuries. 

Players who train with me experience complete game transformations.

They win through intelligent positioning and shot selection, not exhausting power.

They understand the mental game. 

They play multiple times a week with energy. 

They build lasting friendships while leveling up their game.
