Random things about me (hobbies, occupation, tennis history, favorite band, etc.):

I'm a purple-headed, pierced & tattooed fashion designer that definitely doesn't look the part of a 3.5, doubles league player. I once was accused of unfairly "distracting" my opponent with "all those crazy colors on her arms & that thing in her lip". Granted that was when I was living in San Diego playing on a league that regularly had matches with the 50+ crowd ...

Since I moved to Oakland over a year ago, I have only played a handful of times and I'm looking to fix that. I'd like to get a regular doubles game going and possibly start playing tournaments again. I loved being on a league and if my schedule allows I'd happily join one.

I'm looking for someone to hit with weekday mornings/early afternoon to get my rusty skills back up to par. I enjoy singles, but prefer doubles, so if you need a 4th let me know! I'm competitive but love to laugh and have fun on the court.

Favorite pro tennis player(s):

I'll never give up my elementary school crush on Andre Agassi

My tennis skill (please check your NTRP if you know it):

NTRP 3.5

On the court, I am a:

rightie, trixter, whaler, doubles partner, serve-n-volleyer, acer, returner, one-hander, all courter, gracious winner, gracious loser

My favorite local courts:

Still trying to find one. I loved the San Pablo Park Courts when I lived in Berkeley, but traffic is a killer getting over there in the morning from where I am in Oakland.
