As someone who has played or taught tennis for 50 years, I am invested in the game. As a lifelong feminist, I am committed to empowering girls and women in tennis and other areas of their lives. My non-profit management experience is a strength I bring to a newly forming organization. I am a writer/journalist, and I offer writing and editing guidance as needed. Others in WCRS have more current or full-time tennis teaching and coaching experience, and I can enhance our group by leading workshops or seminars on working with LGBTQ students and fellow instructors as well as other forms of diversity. I am a RSPA Elite Level Professional, and I have served the organization in a variety of capacities.
