Building your game, your confidence, and your love for tennis.
I’ve been around tennis my entire life, from competing as a junior and collegiate player to coaching athletes of all ages and levels. My coaching combines strong fundamentals, strategy, movement, and the mental side of the game in a positive, fast-paced environment. I love helping players understand the “why” behind what they’re doing so they can become more confident and independent competitors. Whether your goal is making your high school team, competing at a higher level, or simply becoming a stronger player, I’ll meet you where you are and help you take the next step.
I look at the entire player, not just their strokes. We’ll work on technique, footwork, coordination, fitness, consistency, point construction, patterns of play, and match strategy. Just as importantly, we’ll work on confidence, decision-making, handling pressure, and the mental side of competition. I want you to understand why you’re doing something instead of simply being told where to hit the ball. I’ll push you, hold you accountable, and help you become a more complete and independent player.
Expect to move! We’ll usually start with a dynamic warm-up focused on mobility, coordination, footwork, or tennis-specific fitness. From there, we’ll work on a technical or tactical focus through purposeful drills before progressing into live-ball situations and point play. I love creating competitive scenarios that force you to think, problem-solve, and execute under pressure. Depending on your goals, we may finish with conditioning, movement, or a competitive challenge. Every session has a purpose.
I played competitive junior tennis before continuing my career at the collegiate level and later earning my degree in Kinesiology from UNLV. I am RSPA, PTR, and USTA coaching certified and currently coach at DragonRidge Country Club. My experience ranges from beginner and developmental players to high-performance juniors and competitive adults. I have also been selected for several special coaching opportunities, including the Brewers Cup, Pacific Cup, and Battle of the Sections, where I was selected to coach the Intermountain Section. I’ve also had the opportunity to hit on Arthur Ashe Stadium and speak at the CentHER Court Women’s Conference.
The best coaches I’ve had were the ones who expected more from me while still making me feel like they believed in me. They didn’t just teach me how to hit a tennis ball—they taught me how to compete, problem-solve, handle difficult moments, and trust myself. That has shaped the coach I try to be today. I want my players to know I’m in their corner, but I’m also going to challenge them to give me their best.
I care about the person before the tennis player. I’m competitive and I will push my athletes, but I also want them to enjoy coming to the court and feel comfortable being themselves around me. I believe confidence and development take time, and mistakes are part of getting better. I’ll celebrate the wins, be there through the frustrating days, and always be honest about what we need to work on. My goal isn’t just to create better tennis players—it’s to help develop confident, resilient athletes who genuinely love the game.

If you’re looking to message a coach for the first time, go to their profile and click “Send a Message”. A type box will show, where you can enter and send your message. To follow up with a coach you've already contacted, log into your account and find the 'Inbox' tab. You'll see your message history and be able to send another note.
Once you find a coach that fits your needs, go to their profile, select the package you'd like to purchase, and click 'Book Lessons'. Here, you can reserve your desired number of lessons along with the number of athletes who will be training. After sessions are booked, coordinate the dates/times for each session on your calendar - using the calendar is important since this is how your coach will get paid.
Paying AU coaches via cash, Venmo, or any 3rd party is strictly prohibited. AU coaches know this, but their partnership with us is to split all bookings 80/20 - so coaches keep 80%. We use our 20% to help them find clients & manage their business. Without the split, we wouldn't be able to help our coaches & community thrive!
We integrate with Stripe - the largest & most secure payment processor in the US - to facilitate bookings. Paying online is required, and it simplifies the process for our coaches since it helps track their schedule & earnings in one place. If you have any questions or concerns, please contact our support team.
Each coach typically has at least one preferred training location. You can see the location(s) by going to your coach's profile and finding the 'Training Locations' section. If a coach doesn't have locations listed here, you can message the coach to see where they train. Some coaches are willing to travel to clients for lessons, or even meet halfway.
Each coach sets their own schedule for training. You can see a coach's general availability by going to their profile and finding the 'Availability' section - it will list the days and times. If a coach doesn't post their availability, or if your preferred coach doesn't have your desired times available but you want to double check, message them to see if they can work with your schedule.
Good Fit Guarantee — If your first lesson isn't the right fit, we'll move your lesson credit to a new coach. No hassle.
Easy rescheduling — Cancel or reschedule up to 4 hours before a lesson, no questions asked.
Coach no-shows — You'll be fully credited and we'll help you find a replacement.
Flexible credits — Unused lessons last 12 months and can be used with any coach on the platform.
