When I'm not on the courts...
For over 13 years, I’ve worked full-time as a comedy producer. I’m the founder and owner of The Laugh Cellar™, a wine country–based comedy production company. Since 2014, The Laugh Cellar has produced world-class comedy experiences across wine country and beyond, working across multiple sectors of the comedy industry and collaborating with top-tier talent nationwide.

From 2005 to 2011, I was co-owner of Doce Vida Fitness Inc., an athletic wear line for women and men. The company was featured in the September 2007 issue of O, The Oprah Magazine in the article “Do What You Love,” and we were proud to design private-label workout gear for the Dallas Cowboys Cheerleaders and SPINNING®.
I’m also the Executive Director of the Autism Arts & Athletics Foundation, a 501(c)(3) registered tax-exempt nonprofit public charitable organization whose mission is to empower lives through the arts and athletics. Learn more about the Foundation.
In addition to my pickleball coaching experience, I’m also a certified Yoga instructor with over 27 years of teaching Hatha (Rāja) Yoga. I'm also a student of Bhakti Yoga; transforming everyday emotions and actions into spiritual offerings to experience a deep state of inner union. I bring that same focus of balance, mindfulness, and movement into every lesson — helping players develop not just their skills, but their confidence and enjoyment of the game. My teaching blends strength and mindfulness, helping students cultivate both physical balance and inner harmony. Whether on the court, the mat, or in everyday life, I’m guided by a deep commitment to movement, wellness, and the lifelong pursuit of growth.
I really look forward to meeting you!
