Info
I am 18 years old, graduating from Chesterton High School this year and will be attending IU Bloomington in the fall. I am excited to continue to coach throughout my summers.
How I became a player
I’ve been playing tennis since I was 5 and have trained for over 13 years through private lessons, camps, group sessions, USTA tournaments, leagues, and school teams.
Tennis Achievements
I’ve been a varsity player all four years at Chesterton High School, competing at #1 doubles since sophomore year. One of my proudest accomplishments was in 2025, my partner and I were the first doubles team to make it to state for Chesterton High School. My partner and I were ranked the best doubles team in over half of Indiana, being ranked on the All‑State team and finishing as the top team in both our district and conference.
Coaching History
I started coaching going into my sophomore year and quickly realized it was one of my biggest passions. Since then, I’ve worked with over 60 families across Northwest Indiana. I want to keep helping players grow, compete, and find their place in the tennis community.
