  • Nominated 2012,13,14,18,19,20,23,24,25 PGA High Performance and Game Development Coach of the Year, Queensland PGA

Teaching Philosophy

My coaching is built around simplicity, clarity, and long-term improvement. I believe every golfer has a unique swing, movement pattern, and way of learning — so coaching should never be one-size-fits-all. My role is to identify what matters most, simplify the process, and create clear steps that deliver measurable progress.

About the coach

Hi I am a PGA Professional of Australia. I’m back on Skillest now after a small entry into the Online coaching space a few years ago.

With 25 years of coaching experience, I help golfers at every stage of the game, from complete beginners building solid fundamentals, to elite juniors developing tournament-ready skills, to professionals sharpening performance under pressure. I currently coach over 20 professional players and work closely with elite junior athletes, while keeping my approach simple, structured, and tailored to the individual. Lessons focus on building repeatable ball-striking, better scoring habits, and a clear practice plan you can follow between sessions. If you want measurable improvement and coaching that meets you where you are, I’d love to help.

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?

Courses are a series of instructional videos created by expert coaches that cover a wide range of sport-specific topics. 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.
