I bring to pickleball the most important technique that has made table tennis the fastest sport in the world for reaction time. As a 5.0+ player and former nationally ranked table tennis player (4th in Puerto Rico), I’ve developed a unique coaching method built on muscle memory, fast-twitch reactions, and precise footwork. My training style is inspired by the fundamentals of table tennis and tennis — not just hitting balls, but teaching your body to move naturally and efficiently. I break things down with high-rep shadow work and ping pong-style drills that help your shots become automatic. My favorite shot? The backhand. I love teaching it — flicks, rolls, resets — and I’ll help you turn it into one of your strongest weapons on the court. My backhand punch is my favorite shot, and I love helping players master rolls, flicks, and resets.

OVER 12 YEARS COACHING ⭐️ Access to Indoor Courts ⭐️ Appropriately-sized Green & Orange Tennis Balls for younger students ⭐️ USTA Play Safe Certified ⭐️ Shot tracking and statistics on recorded video available upon request ⭐️ Sweet-spot training racquet available I focus on USTA Coaching's 5 C's: Connection, Confidence, Competency, Character and Creativity. 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.
