"I came to Vernon a little out of shape and honestly just wanting to get back into tennis and finally beat my sister, who was always the better player growing up. Vernon made the process fun and enjoyable from day one. The lessons are a great workout, the music is always good, and he keeps things light with his sense of humor while still focusing on improving your game. With his help, I got back in shape, improved my technique, and I can proudly say I finally beat my sister. I’m already looking forward to the next match. If you want to get better and actually enjoy the process, Vernon is the coach to go to.

Since last year, I've been the proud owner of a tennis club in Italy, where I've cultivated my passion for the sport. Prior to that, I began my teaching journey in the USA back in 2022, joining an academy in Concord, Massachusetts. With a background in high-level tennis in Italy and a peak UTR ranking of 12.5, I bring a wealth of experience to the court. As a personal coach, I've mentored under-16 talents across the USA, guiding them to top 100 rankings with pride and dedication.



My tennis journey started at the esteemed IMG Academy, where I honed my skills and played at the Division 1 collegiate level. The world of tennis became not only my passion but a driving force in my life. Drawing from my training and competitive experience, I transitioned into coaching, sharing my love for the sport with both children and adults at a Manhattan-based club. As a coach, I've had the privilege of working with a diverse range of players, from those stepping onto the court for the first time to advanced athletes seeking to fine-tune their skills. My approach is all-encompassing, focusing on nurturing a strong foundation, refining techniques, and instilling a love for the game in each individual. Tennis is not just a sport; it's a journey of growth and self-discovery, and I'm here to guide every player through that journey.
