Born in Virginia, Stefan moved to France as a toddler and grew up there playing tennis and video games competitively. He became a French national Call of Duty 2 champion in 2006. He was introduced to pickleball in 2021 and quickly rose through the ranks. As a lefty, he relies on his hand speed, put-away power, and defensive skills to pressure his opponents. Stefan has been part of MLP since season 1, 2023, and has been on several teams since then, including the Brooklyn Aces, New Jersey 5s, and DC Pickleball team. Team player by nature, Stefan is highly motivated by the MLP unique and exciting format.
