Camp History:
This will be our second summer coaching tennis through our own camps! We created these tennis camps last summer, as a way to share our love for tennis and gain experience coaching and running a business as teenagers. We are super excited to continue these camps this year, with greater expertise, and the same level of passion and fun!

Co-Founder and Coach
I am a freshman at Columbia University and graduate of The Lakeside School, and a super avid tennis player! I have been playing since I was 6, competitively on my school’s team and also in USTA tournaments. Now, I am a member of Columbia's club tennis team! I was a junior tennis coach at TCSP for 4 years, coached classes weekly and helping run over 10 weeks of summer camps, gaining a lot of coaching experience. I have been running these private camps and lessons over the past two summers and am very excited to continue.
I am a senior at Lakeside School and a competitive tennis player! I am ranked 22nd in Northwest Washington by USTA, and in my sophomore tennis season Addie and I placed 1st in the Metro tournament and 2nd in the State tournament. I have been playing tennis since I was 3 and I know I will never stop! Thus, I am so excited to be able to share my love of tennis this summer!
Here are some pictures of us being involved in tennis as kids ourselves, and continuing to play now! We both enjoy playing both casually and competitively, and hope to balance fun and skill development in our camps.
