I'm originally from St. Joseph, Michigan. I started playing recreational tennis at 4 years old but soon found my competitive nature and continued to play throughout high school, 4 years Varsity, and tennis collegiality at Aquinas College in Grand Rapids, MI. I instructed beginner to advance juniors during summer tennis camps while in high school, hit with tournament player juniors, and instructed in "In the Zone" tennis around Grand Rapids area. After graduating Aquinas and moving to metro-Detroit area, I am now a Tennis Pro at Bloomfield Tennis & Fitness, located off of Square Lake Road and Franklin Road. I teach Level 2 juniors Monday, Wednesday, and Fridays and Tournament Select juniors on Tuesdays and Thursdays. I help coordinate USTA Adult Leagues, Men's Leagues, tennis match-making, and also run USTA Junior Team Tennis practices, teams and matches on weekends. In mornings and evenings, weekday/weekends, I offer private lessons, semi-private and group lessons too for juniors, adults, and seniors. In my free time, I still like to continue hitting and playing USTA Adult leagues or competitive-friendly matches to keep in shape both physically and for my tennis skill.
- How did you get started doing this type of work?
At young age of 4, my siblings and friends helped motivate me and bring out my competitive side in sports. Since then, training and playing has helped me be more fit and connect with others that have tried tennis.
