Though I have only been playing pickleball for a few years. My extensive racquet sports knowledge prepared me well for transition to pickleball. Ever since leaving competitive sports, I struggled to fill the hole that not playing sports left. Being a recent college graduate I had a hard time understanding why I was feeling empty and depressed entering this new chapter of my life. I realized that I needed to find a way to tap into my competitive nature, and Pickleball became passion. I played competitve youth tennis form the ages 4-14 and took lessons 4-5 dyas a week throughout that time. Thus, my knowledge of swing kinetics, footwork, and game strategy are very high. I am also a 5.0 DUPR rated player and play in tournaments with all the best players in the area. Recently, I was unofficially ranked top 20 in NEO. I am fun and outgoing individual, that will make learning quick and interesting for all ages.
