Coaching Philosophy
I believe that sports are an opportunity to live out many different situations and scenarios that we as humans need to learn how to overcome or handle… such as winning, losing, dealing with pressure, team work, self-esteem etc. But each situation is an opportunity to encourage good character and self confidence in the athlete. Teaching them the battle is more internal than external and that they get to choose how they see and react to each obstacle set before them.
Playing Experience
I played No.1 high school tennis as well as competitively in the USTA.
