Guaranteed Sub 24 hour Response Time
By day, I work in IT, troubleshooting network issues and deciphering error messages. But by evening, you'll find me on the pickleball court, trying to perfect that elusive spin serve or working on my still-not-quite-there drop shot.
I also contribute to a pickleball affiliate website, but let's be clear—I'm no journalist. I write articles sharing what I've learned, the mistakes I've made, and the gear I've tried. My aim is to help others navigate the learning curve a bit more smoothly than I did.
When I'm not behind a computer screen or holding a paddle, I love spending time with my family, hiking, and diving into a good science fiction novel. If you're ever up for a game or just want to chat about pickleball, feel free to reach out. I'm all ears and always looking to improve.
