Tennis has been my passion for 28+ years, and I love helping players of all levels improve, grow, and enjoy the game. I focus on building solid fundamentals—from footwork and technique to strategy and mental toughness—while keeping sessions fun and engaging. Seeing a player nail a new shot or gain confidence on the court is what drives me. Whether it’s competitive training or casual practice, my goal is to create a positive, energetic environment where players can develop skills, love the game, and reach their full potential.

I first learned golf as a teenager and was hand-selected by a Head Golf Pro to become an apprentice, aiming to teach and play at a high level. After an injury, I’ve been focusing on rehab while giving lessons, all with the goal of becoming competitive again.

Holding a U.S.G.A 7 handicap, I teach players of all ages and skill levels—from beginners to advanced, ages 5 to 92. My methods are simple and effective, making it easy for anyone to practice at home. Let's link up for a lesson, and I’ll help you find golf to be as or more enjoyable as you ever imagined it to be. 😊👍☕️

Hi! I’m Simon, a passionate pickleball player with a love for helping people of all ages and skill levels get into this fast-growing, fun, and social sport.

Whether you’re a total beginner looking to learn the basics, or someone with experience hoping to sharpen your skills, I focus on building strong fundamentals in a relaxed, encouraging environment.

Creating a joyful learning experience is my mantra. As a dedicated music educator, I cultivate a relaxed environment where making mistakes is part of the journey, and experimentation is encouraged. Students should leave each session feeling confident in themselves and their abilities. My educational journey, from studying Bel Canto operatic singing at Queensborough Community College to exploring diverse styles at Berklee College of Music, has equipped me to offer students a comprehensive foundation to sing any song in any style. Join me in discovering the joy of singing while building a solid musical skill set that lasts a lifetime. For more examples of my singing and to get to know me more, feel free to listen to my music and hear me on social media.
