I first started playing pickleball in 2015, but after a break, I returned to the game in 2022 with a renewed passion. By 2024, I began teaching and sharing my love for the sport with others. Having a background in various other sports, I've found pickleball to be a game I truly enjoy, and I've worked my way up to nearly a 4.0 skill level. As a recent college graduate, I now have ample time in the evenings to play and teach, and I’m excited to help others improve their game and reach new heights!

"First time I ever played I asked Nick to help teach me the rules and how to play. Nick was very patient as I was learning. I was so frustrated as I couldn't get it down at first but Nick helped me set my expectations appropriately and when I made a great shot, he was the first to compliment me!

I've the largest array of teaching: clubs, privately, USTA, Utah Youth Tennis, and Parks & Rec Centers I'm confident in personlizing not only what I teach, but how I teach depending on the age, skill and personality of my students. I always find ways to connect with them! Knowing how and when to progress drills to be more challenging and regressing them to permit greater success sets me apart from other coaches. I have an extensive list of warm-ups, which are vital to start with. From there we build up technique, using micro challenges to apply healthy pressure found in a real match. I finish my lessons with games to apply what we learned and to allow students to use their creativity to problem solve. Early ages, the emphasis has to be on fun to keep them going. As my students mature, we focus more on building confidence competing. My older students provide notes for us to improve their level of competition in real matches.
