What started as a love for the game quickly turned into something more — a passion for teaching it. I’m a certified pickleball instructor who has competed and thrived at the highest competitive levels, earning 5.0 tournament victories and stepping onto the court against top-25 PPA professionals. That experience playing against the best in the game isn’t just a cool story, I have felt the pace, the strategy, and the pressure of elite-level pickleball firsthand, and brings all of that to every lesson and clinic. Whether you’re just picking up a paddle for the first time or grinding to break into the 4.0+ ranks, I meet you exactly where you are. The goal is simple: help you have more fun, win more points, and fall in love with this game the same way it happened for me. Let’s rally. Book a session today.

From Mini-Tour Grinder to Your Swing Coach Golf humbled me for years before it rewarded me. Two decades competing at the mini-tour level, chasing a swing that kept letting me down — until I finally understood why it works the way it does, not just what “felt right.” That shift took my game from grinding to a career-low round of 63. It took years to get there. I built my coaching so you won’t have to spend years figuring it out on your own. What a lesson with me actually looks like: You’ll see your own swing on high-speed camera — not my opinion of it, the actual mechanics on screen. We break down cause and effect together, so you leave understanding why something works, not just told to “trust it.” • 2,000+ lessons coached, competitive playing background • Bilingual coaching in English, Mandarin, and Burmese • Clear, honest feedback — no vague cues, no guesswork Every student walks away with real clarity and a next step they actually understand. That’s the whole point.
