“I’ve been playing competitive tennis for over 40 years, and Mark has truly been a game changer! He works with your natural tendencies to maximize your game in the shortest time possible—whether you’re a beginner or an ‘old dog’ like me. I recommend him without reservation. He was on an NCAA Division I championship team for a reason!”

“If I didn’t have to actually run the Tennis Channel, I’d be on the court with Mark all the time! He’s a terrific teacher and great fun to be around.”
– Ken Solomon, President, Tennis Channel
Hi everyone! My name is Mark, and I’m a private tennis coach. I grew up playing junior tournaments across Northern California. I went on to attend USC, where I served as both hitting partner and manager for the Division I men’s tennis team—we won an NCAA National Championship while I was there in 2014. After college, I began teaching private lessons throughout the Los Angeles and San Francisco Bay Areas. I also worked on and off with a professional player, even coaching him at the 2017 US Open. Fun fact: I’ve been the longtime coach (10+ years) of both TV talk show host Dr. Phil and Tennis Channel President Ken Solomon. Another fun fact: I have a win (from back in our junior days) over a current professional men’s player who has been ranked as high as #37 in the world—and is still in the top 100. I enjoy working with kids and adults, beginners to advanced, and everything in between! I look forward to hearing from you.
