Facts

Hometown(s)Novi Sad, Serbia + Mulhouse, France
Current HomeLong Island

Tennis Career:  Number 1 Junior in Serbia and France. College Tennis at USC (Go Gamecocks!). 

Paddle CareerI started playing paddle because my friends told me I had to try it, plus I was a new assistant at a club. It was everywhere. [Ana was a Director of Racquets in Connecticut for many years.]
Reasons to Love PaddleCompeting and spending quality time with Flor (Hanisch) and the other awesome people on the Tour. We're friends but we're really, really competing hard against each other. It's a nice combination of both worlds.

Favorite Paddle Memory: Winning my first Nationals with Flor. She was pregnant, and we played in the rain in New Jersey. 

Strengths: Anticipating well, being aggressive and unpredictable.

HobbiesTraveling, planning my next meal, watching Grey’s Anatomy.
