As a member of the Southern Oaks Athletic Club (SOAC) tennis pro staff, I have gained a plethora of experience with both children and adult tennis players of virtually all skill levels. The SOAC juniors tennis program has produced many highly ranked tournament players in both Louisiana and the entire southern region. My roles involve private and group lessons, racquet stringing, and high-level tournament coaching.
