Why do you love coaching?

To me, coaching is about setting the bar high for my students. I then love to inspire, encourage, and guide my students to reach this bar in the best and most supportive environment possible. 

Why do you love playing tennis?

I started playing tennis when I was 7 years old, so, for me, the sport is a lifelong activity. I also love playing tennis because of the variety of shots, movements, and strategies I can use to outsmart my opponent.

Your favourite tennis player and why?

Roger Federer: because of his extraordinary playing talent, agility, strength of character, and sportsmanship. 

Your favourite shot to coach and why?

The backhand: it's a versatile shot that can be played using both topspin and slice and, in my experience, most students find their backhand is holding them back, so I love to help them master this important shot.  

Your favourite shot to play and why?

The backhand slice: this particular shot is my dependable, safe shot that I can use both defensively from the baseline and offensively as an approach shot when I'm moving to the net to close out the point with a volley.
