I started playing tennis at the age of 12, in a place where there was little tennis culture. Very often I trained alone in front of a wall. Before embarking on my university career, I reached a good tennis level in a short time, managing to play in national championships in singles and in teams.
In Rome I graduated in sports sciences plus a master’s degree in sports science and techniques, and in the meantime I started my job as a tennis coach.
Alongside a Polish coach, I managed a tennis school from mini tennis to adult courses, and coached 2 top junior players under 18, currently 541ATP (Pennaforti G.) and 977ATP (Perruzza V.).After 4 years I moved to Mallorca, Spain, working in the Global tennis academy, of Joffre Porta, coach of Moya and Nadal. Training only competitive kids from under 10 to under 18, among the best in the world, I traveled to ETA (tennis Europe) and ITF tournaments all over Europe.
After 2 years I got an offer from the Rafa Nadal Academy where I worked another 2 years alternating competition and adult courses. I traveled to many parts of the world teaching our working methodology in various academies and clubs:
-BELGIUM and HOLLAND (April 2022)
-IRELAND (May 2022)
-CHILE (November 2022)
-GUATEMALA (December 2022)
-AUSTRALIA (January 2023)
-JAPON (February 2023)
-GREECE (May – June 2023)
After 4 years in Spain and 4 years in Italy, after learning so much and from the best coaches in the world, I decided to pursue my career on my own. My life path took me to Kuwait, where I have a great desire to find out what this land can offer me and what I will be able to leave behind.
I am a charismatic person and coach, with a lot of grit and ambition. My aim is to bring out the best in any player. A tennis coach is a trainer, educator, motivator; at the base of my ideology are the values of sacrifice, constancy, respect, order and discipline. We are not just coaches, we build the foundations for future generations
