When I’m not on the tennis court, I love spending quality time with my friends and family, exploring new places, and discovering delicious dishes from around the world. Whether it’s watching tennis on TV or attending live events, I’m always inspired by the sport I love.

Balancing my passion for tennis with these simple joys in life keeps me grounded and energized, ready to help others achieve their best on the court.

I started attending tennis academies at the age of 12 with the goal of becoming a professional player, but unfortunately, that dream didn’t come true due to the high financial costs involved. I began learning how to teach at a tennis school, working with young children on Wednesday and Saturday mornings. I then decided to pursue formal training to make tennis coaching my career.

I traveled to Spain to immerse myself in their renowned tennis expertise, spending three months at Real Betis. After that, I moved to Canada, first to Montreal and then to Vancouver, where I founded my own academy, Phoenix Tennis-To, which I ran for four years until the COVID pandemic hit.

In 2023, I decided to explore opportunities in Australia, where I served as the head coach of a club for several months as a replacement. I also completed a coaching stint at a 5-star resort in the Maldives. Throughout my career, I’ve continued to seek further education and training, even after earning my certifications.

Additionally, I’ve had the privilege of being a sparring partner for players ranked as high as the top 100 at the Bordeaux Challenger and the Vancouver Challenger.
