About the coach

I’m the founder of FUNCTIONAL.GOLF — a coaching approach that integrates biomechanics, functional movement, breathing strategy, and skill development into a clear, repeatable system. My goal is simple: to help golfers build a game that holds up under pressure, not just one that looks good on the range.

I focus on in-person coaching, where real improvement comes from skilled observation, guided practice, and meaningful feedback. Whether we’re working on movement patterns, shot patterns, or performance habits, every session is tailored to the golfer in front of me — their body, their tendencies, and the way they learn.

If you’d like to understand the philosophy behind FUNCTIONAL.GOLF, I invite you to explore the podcast Reframing the Game, which outlines the systems-based approach I use on the lesson tee:

This is coaching for golfers who want clarity, consistency, and progress grounded in real understanding — not quick fixes or swing tips.
