I have been actively involved in the tennis profession as a junior and an adult. I was a nationally ranked junior in the state of Florida. I attended the University of South Carolina, where I attained the "Top 5 All-Time" singles victories (106). As adult, I have remained an active player in the USTA and USPTA tournaments in state and national competition. In 1999 and 2000, I was USTA 25's Clay Court Doubles Champion with Derek Brooks. I was a member of the 2003 National Open Team Champion. In addition, I have been the USPTA Florida Open Player of the Year in 1999, 2000, 2002, 2003 and 35's Player of the Year in 2006, 2007 and 2008. I have two children Carly 10 and Joey 8, that I am actively involved in their school and after school activities such as soccer, football, tennis, and horseback riding.
