I am a Certified Professional Tennis Instructor / Member of The Professional Tennis Registry, and I am fortunate to earn an honest wage sharing my knowledge and love for tennis.

I focus on what my players need to improve upon for each student has their own unique combination of athleticism, bio-mechanics, and mental toughness.

I am also a writer with a background in Journalism though I distanced myself from the unexpectedly rapid convergence of all traditional mediums into digital formats. I saw that if I were good, I would only need a computer, web-site, and a back-pack. In the midst of disappointment and feeling lost was when I truly began to find myself as an artist.

Money can only corrupt the authenticity of one's passion, I promised myself that I wouldn't let that happen. Great art is universal while worldly fame is forgotten. I am a fierce competitor, versatile / active athlete, devoted coach, epic storyteller, and poet.
