| Dexterity | Left Handed |
| NTRP Rating | 5.0 |
| Favorite Player (All time/Current) | Andre Agassi / Rafael Nadal, Mardy Fish & Bryan Bros |
| Playing Style | Semi-Western forehand, two-handed backhand. Mostly a baseliner, though I like to mix it up with spins and sneak into the net when I can. My favorite shots to hit are my backhand crosscourt and baseline dropshot. |
| Tennis Background | I have been playing tennis since I was nineteen, after I decided that my footballs days were over. I played two seasons at Allan Hancock Community College. Nowadays, I enjoy playing So-Cal tournaments and have won a handful of 4.5 & 5.0 titles. |
