As a passionate and experienced tennis player with over 12 years of competitive play, I bring a deep commitment to the sport both as an athlete and as a coach. Since high school, I’ve dedicated myself to coaching young athletes, helping them develop their skills, build confidence, and embrace the values of teamwork. I thrive on mentoring and find genuine joy in fostering growth—on and off the court—especially in kids who are eager to learn and improve.

My competitive achievements include being ranked in the top 10 in Southern California and in the top 40 nationally for the recruiting class of 2022 as a five-star recruit. These accomplishments earned me a full athletic scholarship to Purdue University, where I played varsity tennis for one and a half years. I am now continuing my tennis career with plans to transfer to another program to further my athletic and academic ambitions.

Tennis has been more than just a sport for me—it has been a teacher of discipline, resilience, and mental toughness. Competing at a high level has shown me that success isn’t just about talent; it’s about preparation, consistent effort, and the mindset to embrace challenges head-on. It’s also taught me the importance of balance, as I’ve learned to push my own limits while supporting teammates and others around me.

As a coach, I strive to instill these lessons in my players. Whether it’s encouraging perseverance, building technical skills, or teaching the value of preparation, my goal is to inspire young athletes to succeed not only in tennis but in life. My passion for the game drives me to create an environment where players feel motivated, confident, and supported every step of the way.
