Teaching Philosophy

My coaching is built on the belief that lasting improvement comes from understanding — not just fixing. I want every student to know exactly what's happening in their swing, why it's causing the ball flight they're seeing, and what their body needs to do to change it. That's why I use SportsboxAI 3D swing analysis and the TPI movement screen: so we're not guessing, we're making decisions based on real data. The body-swing connection is at the heart of everything I do. If your body can't physically perform a movement, I'm not going to ask you to do it. That's why I assess how you move first, then build a plan around what you're capable of — and what we need to develop. Every practice plan I create is customized, structured, and designed so you always know what to work on and why. Having spent ten years playing professionally and time around elite players and coaches on the PGA Tour, I've been fortunate to absorb a huge range of influences. I've taken the best of those experiences and built a coaching philosophy that blends elite-level structure with genuine personalization. Whether you're a beginner or a competitive player, my goal is the same: help you improve efficiently, perform with confidence, and enjoy the game more.
