Bio
My Story
I help athletes globally navigate the often challenging world of college sports. I played professional tennis and represented Norway in the Federation Cup from 1996 - 1998. In addition, I turned semi-pro in golf and understand what is required to compete on a world stage. On the WTA tour, I reached a career-high ranking of 223 in doubles and played in the US Open Singles in 1994 and 1995. During my US College playing days at the University of Georgia, I won three NCAA National Team Championships and in 1995 my partner and I were the NCAA's #1 ranked doubles team.
Following my athletic career, I went on to coach Division 1 women's college tennis for 11 years and was known for my practical, honest, and direct approach to the development of both the person and the athlete. I help athletes in ALL sports to find US College Scholarships. I privately coach and mentor athletes during transition periods, helping them to pursue their sporting goals and dreams.

TESTIMONIALS
Meagan Donovan - Mentoring & College Placement (Women's Tennis Washington & Lee)
"It has truly been a pleasure working with Tina Samara! I feel that she has not only been a terrific mentor throughout the college process but also has helped me develop as a tennis player! Her ability to talk and communicate about any situation or issue at any time was a huge plus because my experience with other recruiting agencies was that they treat you like a number. Tina’s professionalism, guidance, and sense of humor were greatly appreciated every step of the way. Overall, I have really enjoyed my time as a player with transition coach for athletes, and truly look forward to continuing to talk with Tina during my upcoming college years! I would highly recommend Tina Samara to any juniors looking for the next level!!"
