I grew up playing every sport possible but my passions were basketball and softball. I played well into adulthood helping organize teams and leagues until I discovered pickleball.

 

I started playing pickleball in 2019 when my mom begged us kids to play with her for Mother’s Day. I thought it was the most ridiculous (not sport) until I tried it and woke up the next day sore in all the places that I didn’t know I had a muscle. I was immediately hooked and had to know how to master the game. I started playing with a crowd that was all 55+ and they whipped my tail every week! I began playing tournaments and loved every second of learning.

 

In 2021,  I began helping others learn to play. I quickly became involved with our local community board helping with tournaments, teaching skills and drills and helping organize park play. In 2023, I started FCA pickleball, going into schools and the community and helping establish club play for students. I also organized clinics and tournaments for teachers and kids.

 

I began working for @revolvepickleball in 2024 at their launch as a teaching pro and pickleball experiences coordinator. I helped create programming and taught members. In August 2025 I took over as the pickleball director at the facility. I am a certified professional teacher through PPR and a DUPR certified coach. I love helping others learn the game and develop skill to progress them into whatever goal they have for their pickleball future.
