Bio: I am a PPR certified Coach specializing in players at the 2.5 to 4.0 skill level. I am looking forward to offering lessons here to help players advance to the next level. With 35 years of coaching experience in Division 1 basketball and 4 years experience coaching racquetball and tennis, I bring a deep understanding of sports strategy, mental toughness, and skill development to the pickleball court. After discovering pickleball five years ago, I quickly became passionate about the sport and now combine my knowledge of coaching with my love for helping others improve their skills so they can develop as a player and enjoy the game at the highest level desired. I am an avid pickleball player with a passion for competition. I have competed successfully in recent tournaments, winning gold in both men’s doubles, 50-59 age bracket (4.0+ division) and singles, 55-59 division (4.0) at the Mid-Atlantic Regional Tournament in Pennsylvania. I also earned silver in the men’s doubles, 55+ (4.0+) in the Hall Of Fame Club Tournament in Ohio.

Bio: I bring an extensive racket/paddle background to the Instructor Team at TeachMeTo. I grew up playing Jr. tennis in Atlanta and continued on to play on scholarship on the University of Georgia Women’s Tennis Team. I continued playing competitive tennis and Platform tennis for “decades” before finding Pickleball. I entered my 1st Pickleball tournament 6 years ago and haven't touched a tennis racket since. I compete in PB tournaments all over the country and have won many medals in both Mixed and Women’s Doubles. I am a Level 2 IPTPA as well as PPR instructor and love to help others achieve their Pickleball goals – whether that means just enjoying rec play, or competing in tournaments.
