Teaching Philosophy

I believe golf instruction should bring clarity, not confusion. Too many golfers have spent years grinding away at their game without seeing real progress, not because they lacked effort, but because they lacked the right guidance. My job is to cut through the noise and give you simple, actionable feels and fundamentals you can actually trust under pressure on the course. As a TPI-Certified instructor, I incorporate an understanding of fitness, biomechanics, and swing mechanics into every lesson. Your swing has to work for your body, and my goal is to build instruction around who you are, not some idealized model. Whether you're a complete beginner learning the basics or a competitive player looking to sharpen your technique, I tailor every session to your swing, your goals, and your physical capabilities. I use video analysis extensively so you can see exactly what your swing is doing and understand the why behind every change we make. When golfers understand their swing, they improve faster and the results stick. That's what Golf-Ed. is all about, helping you Educate Your Game.

About the coach

New to Skillest, but not new to coaching. With over 20,000 lessons taught—from beginners to Tour professionals—I am bringing world-class, in-person instruction directly to your phone.

As the founder of Golf-Ed., I specialize in the Body-Swing Connection. I integrate biomechanics, fitness, and swing mechanics so every change we make actually fits your physical capabilities. I take complex swing concepts and make them simple, clear, and immediately usable.

TPI Certified Expert:

Golf Level 2: Advanced swing analysis and body-swing connection mechanics.

Power Level 2: Optimizing kinematic sequencing and ground reaction forces to maximize speed.

Junior Level 2: Elite athletic development for college-bound players.

Proven Results:
My students have dropped 10+ shots in months, returned to scratch-level play, secured college scholarships, and competed professionally.
Whether you want to fix a slice, break a stubborn scoring plateau, or build a repeatable swing, I’m here to help you Educate Your Game.

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. You can also ask your coach follow-up questions you have, and chat with them through the app. You can also review your feedback and track your progress anytime on the app.

What are the different types of lesson plans I can purchase?

Skillest offers a variety of plans and packages available for purchase. You can purchase a single online lesson, lesson packages, monthly subscriptions, or live Zoom lessons. Many coaches also offer video-based courses in addition to one-on-one coaching. Note: Not every coach will offer each type of lesson plan available.

What are Courses?

Whether you're looking to refine your technique, master strategy, boost your fitness, or enhance your mental game, our courses are designed to help you excel in your chosen sport—be it golf, swimming, cricket, basketball, or baseball.
