Besides a strong gender barrier, only those with financial means had an opportunity to play tennis because of the exorbitant club fees. She came to the United States in 1991 and developed a love for tennis the following year. She began competing on USTA and local league teams and soon began sharing her passion as an instructor. She loves working with juniors and is PTR certified in both the 10 and Under and 11-17 junior certifications.
