These coaches teach at top ranked spots and have great lesson fulfillment & student reviews.


Embracing the exciting world of pickleball, I bring two years of experience, a Doubles Gold Medal from our local SCALPEL League and a passion for sharing my love for the game. As an experienced player, I offer personalized coaching that focuses on developing your skills and building your confidence on the court. Let's work together to elevate your game in a fun and supportive environment.
"Evan gave good feedback on my weak spots, which I found quite helpful, and I’m feeling more motivated to start improving those areas. The lesson had some useful insights, and I appreciate the more thoughtful approach, though I still think some drills could help me build confidence. Still, I’d be open to trying another lesson with him to see how I progress.



I’m a former math teacher and former tech exec turned pickleball enthusiast. Over the last couple of years, I’ve invested a massive amount of time studying the sport and breaking it down into its foundational pieces in order to teach myself how to excel at the game. In that time, I’ve gone from an absolute beginner to an advanced level player - I play at the 4.5+ level, I’ve won multiple medals in tournaments, and I’ve earned a Professional Coach certificate through PPR. In addition to independent coaching, I am also the lead pickleball coach at Bay Club Redwood Shores & Broadway. I am truly energized by teaching others everything I've learned about this sport. As a former math teacher and Harvard alum, I take an academic approach to coaching: lessons are planned in advance, skills are broken down into steps, there are opportunities to practice and make mistakes, and I provide written notes and videos post-lesson to solidify your learning. As a former tech leader, my coaching involves giving direct and timely feedback, relying on first principles to guide lessons, and adapting quickly to optimize your learning. Thank you for considering me and I hope to see you on the courts soon!
