I discovered tennis late, when I joined my high school's junior varsity tennis team at age 15 to meet new people after moving schools.

By my senior year, I had become varsity #1 doubles and #2 singles, and later went on to a five-year sports journalism career before picking up the racket as a tennis professional when I moved to Los Angeles in 2016-2017.

My journey hasn't been traditional, but I have managed to achieve a high playing level and pay the bills as a professional athlete. This channel is dedicated to all of the players who are still committed to leveling up. If I had realistic expectations, I never would have accomplished my dream of being paid to play tennis. The higher levels of the sport ARE ATTAINABLE and often we just need the right coach to unlock our potential.

This is all about the mindset hacks, technical adjustments, and stroke tutorials that it takes to improve quickly. See you on the court! 5.0 level strokes / 8 UTR match play.

Thank You!
