Pickleball Career Highlights

Winning 18 professional tour titles in my first year as a professional pickleball player obviously exceeded all my expectations.

Reaching  #1 world ranking in Singles and winning all major singles tournaments: Nationals, US Open, New York Open, and PPA Championships during my first year is something that has created great memories and hopefully I can reflect on this upon retiring.

Have reached 17 straight singles pro finals ( and counting) (14 wins and 3 losses)

Did You Know?

2020 Tennis Singes National champion, 3 grade A tour titles on the ITF ( International Tennis Federation) Tour - going 22-0 while pursuing #1 world ranking before Covid hit and I discovered pickleball instead! Reached career high #16 in the World.

Upon retiring from Pickleball, would like to pursue the professional tour in Touch Tennis.
