"Great experience

With almost 30 years of competitive golf experience and more than 5 years teaching the game of golf, I combine deep technical expertise with a hands on approach to help the student achieve the proper techniques used in the golf swing.  I use an everyday, practical teaching method to help my students understand the golf swing by using familiar daily movements.  Whether it’s tossing a cup of water over your shoulder or holding a tray like a waiter, these comparisons make complex motions easier to grasp.  I am currently a PGA Affiliate and plan to be be fully a certified member of the Professional Golf Association of America (PGA) by 2026.  I have a love and a passion for helping my students reach their full potential and am excited about introducing and expanding the game of golf to others.

"Highly recommend!
