Training Team Co-Lead

We were introduced to Pickleball in 2012. Eventually gave up both tennis and softball in favor of pickleball (a bad knee helped make that an easier decision).  Began coaching and teaching friends and family in 2017 and was able to earn certification as an Instructor from USA Pickleball and PPR in 2022.  I’ve found few things more rewarding or satisfying than sharing my love of the game with those eager to learn.
