All About Me: I am a Greenwood native, Center Grove grad and Ball State alum. My father coached high school tennis in Indiana and got me started playing as soon as I could hold a miniature racquet. I played through the junior divisions and high school before turning my focus to competitive table tennis in college. After graduating, I moved to Louisville, KY, for a couple of years, followed by Phoenix, AZ, for about seven. It was there that a friend from table tennis leagues showed me a clip of pickleball and I wondered why I wasn't already playing it! It's now been almost four years since I started playing and I can't imagine my life without it. I've been back in Indy for about a year now and this sport is great everywhere you go. I'm thrilled to work with the IPC family and not only promote racquet sports and competition, but the unique sense of community that comes with pickleball.

Experience: I am a 5.0+ DUPR-rated player and have played in close to 400 reported tournament and league matches across five different states. I may be one of the few who enjoys singles pickleball more than doubles, but I am happy to help you with strategy and specific drills for either. I enjoy teaching so let me know how I can help you, from the basics all the way up to tournament prep!
