Hey all!
It’s been a while since I last updated! It’s been a pretty hectic two months and is now already September. Unbelievable… A tremendous chunk of my time has been dedicated to improving my skills in tennis, including working with three different coaches, each focusing on different aspects of my game and was playing seven [...]

Bing!

Migration Complete!

Check it out! All of the old posts and the website has gone through a transformation for the new year and is now run using WordPress tools, which will make it easier and better to maintain, keeping all those spam-bot comments away as well. =) Speaking of which, one drawback to moving everything over was [...]
