I recently graduated from the University of Toronto with a master's degree in Climate Change and Sustainability, having balanced my academic pursuits with a dynamic tennis career. As a former NCAA college athlete in the US, I achieved recognition as part of the All-Commonwealth Coast Conference Singles and Doubles Second Team during my rookie year. My tennis journey extends beyond collegiate play—I've competed in ITF tour-level tournaments and secured multiple junior titles in Venezuela. Alongside my tennis achievements, I've contributed to tennis coaching programs at esteemed clubs like Brookline Tennis Academy, Don Mills Tennis Club, and Davisville Tennis Club, honing my skills as a mentor and instructor.

My training focuses on footwork, tactics, stroke development, and fun gameplay to keep students happy while improving their skills.
