🏓 A Lifetime Mission to 'Pay It Forward'
Through Table Tennis
In 1956, when my family my Father, Mother, Sister, and I escaped Hungary during the Revolution,
we brought more than just our belongings. We brought with us a lifelong passion for table tennis.
But in America, Ping Pong was seen mostly as a basement hobby, not the serious, skillful sport
we cherished back in Hungary.
That cultural contrast became the seed of my life’s mission: to help elevate “Tennis on a Table” in
the U.S. to the same respected, beloved level it enjoys around the world. My upcoming memoir tells
the story of that journey from revolution to invention, and from hardship to purpose.
🎯 A Gift to the Sport
My invention, the Smart Innovative Racquet (SIR) a ping-pong–shaped smartphone cover is a modern tool
that enables motion tracking, filming, and aerobic training. It’s built to make table tennis
accessible and beneficial for all ages from 8 to 98 combining fitness with fun.
