Player Bio

Ever since I started playing tennis over ten years ago, it has been my dream to be a professional tennis player.

Enjoying team and doubles play as a junior, I have won prizes since I was ten years old. Over the years I have developed my style of play: powerful serve, killer forehand and rapid volleys targeting that of the men’s style tennis.

With recent experience playing in qualifying and main draws of Futures in Australia and Europe, I am completing my development, starting to win tournaments above my age group as well as open’s (both Singles and Doubles) preparing for a breakthrough on the pro tour and College.
