After his first two, he started playing 4.5 level, several 5.0s, and even a couple in the professional levels.  He earned several Gold and Silver medals in 4.5s and even though no medals yet at the professional level, he had some great wins.  Currently, he resides in Raleigh, NC with his wife Mandy, who is also an avid tennis and pickleball player.
