Summary

I am a committed Tennis Canada certified Club Pro 1 tennis coach with over six years of coaching experience. I developed a love for the game as a child at the Burnaby Tennis Club and later developed into a competitive junior player. I received coaching from many of the top coaches in Vancouver and I take great pleasure in passing my knowledge onto my students. My ultimate goal is to instill a love of the sport and to guide each player to reach their peak potential.
