Emily started her tennis career at the age of 5 and continued playing in high school and at Albright College. At Cocalico High School, she and her partner won the Lancaster-Lebanon League Doubles Championship. After a short hiatus in early adulthood, she returned to the courts at Hillerest and has been an avid student of the game ever since. She is now excited to share her knowledge and love of the game as a coach.

Off the court, Emily is a professional in the fitness industry as owner of and instructor at EmJ Pilates. She teaches clients, including a number of tennis players, how to move better with a combination of strength and flexibility. "In my Pilates studio, my goal is for each person to leave feeling better than when they walked through the door. I have the same goal for students who work with me on the tennis court...leave each session with more knowledge, more confidence, and more excitement for the sport."

Emily believes that the best teachers are lifelong students, so you will see her taking lessons as well as giving lessons. She also believes that whoever first invented the idea of the "runners high" never swung a tennis racquet. There is no better feeling!
