A former player under Paladin head coach Michelle Dasso at Duke, Jessica Ho has served as a Furman assistant coach since head coach Michelle Dasso arrived in the fall of 2022.
Ho, who graduated from Duke in 2022 with degrees in neuroscience and math, competed as a junior and professional tennis player. She earned world rankings as high as 509th in the singles and 371st in doubles. Ho lived and trained in Spain for a year and a half. She competed in all Junior Grand Slams from 2008-15 and won the Junior Fed Cup twice in 2016 and 2019.
“Working with Jessica at the collegiate level reaffirmed my love of college coaching,” said Dasso. “She gave everything of herself on a daily basis, on the tennis court and in the classroom. She was an absolute joy to work with, and her love of the sport has always been obvious and infectious. I feel blessed my team is surrounded by such strong role models.”
Ho currently works as a software engineer for Torqata Analytic.
