About the coach

My philosophy is SIMPLE: help you build a repeatable swing without overwhelming you with technique. I believe in working WITH a player’s natural swing and make the necessary adjustments to make it more efficient. 📈
-
Whether you’re goal is to break break 100,90 or 80 for the first time or become a single digit handicap, my experience and extensive training as both a coach and player will help you get there! ➡️
-
If you’re looking for a coach who will help you achieve your golfing goals while respecting your natural swing, I am your guy! 💪🏽

As a professional player myself, I emphasize the importance of balance between technique a d performance. Through my years as a world ranked professional golfer, I learned valuable insights about the mental game and how to unlock your best golf on the course. 🏌🏻‍♂️
-
Getting better at golf can be extremely frustrating or incredibly rewarding! I have found with dozens of students that having constant feedback and the right plan (which I will provide you with) is really the key to improving 🏆

I am also a proud Huskie and former Division 1 All-Conference selection and team captain at Northern Illinois University. Go dogs! 🐾

Frequently asked questions

What is an online golf lesson?

An online golf lesson is a way of learning golf skills and techniques from a coach or instructor through the internet, using video analysis, live coaching, or online courses. On Skillest, you can get private instruction with an elite golf coach without even leaving your home. Just record your golf swing and send it to your coach, along with any goals, questions, or other information that will help your coach create the right plan for you.

What are the benefits of an online lesson using Skillest?

Online golf lessons using Skillest offer many benefits, such as convenience, affordability, flexibility, and access to the largest selection of the most talented golf coaches in one place. Through video recordings, side by side comparisons, and conversations you have with your coach, you will receive comprehensive feedback on what you need to improve and how to improve these areas. When you get a lesson on Skillest, you don’t need to schedule a time or drive to your lesson. You can just record your swing and message your coach whenever you have questions.

How do I receive feedback from my coach?

You will receive feedback from your coach through the Skillest app. Your coach will record their own videos with their analysis as well as additional drills to work on and send them back to you inside the lesson. You can watch your coach’s analysis, which may include video, audio, text, or drawings and see the changes and improvements they suggest for your swing.
