Teaching Philosophy
I don't teach the golf swing as an isolated activity — I teach it as part of your entire game and athletic identity. My philosophy is rooted in the belief that the body responds on both a conscious and subconscious level when executing a shot, which means real improvement requires more than swing tips. It requires understanding your body, your mind, and your competitive goals together. I don't believe in a one-size-fits-all system. Every player who walks through my door has a unique physical makeup, a unique history with the game, and unique goals. My job is to build a development plan that meets you exactly where you are — whether you're a junior just starting out, an amateur chasing your first tournament win, or a collegiate hopeful trying to earn a scholarship. Through TPI-based physical screening, biomechanical analysis, ground pressure data, and mental performance training, I build a complete picture of your game and give you a clear, measurable path forward. I've had the privilege of competing professionally myself — playing in 30+ events, earning wins, and qualifying for USGA events — and that experience on the competitive stage directly shapes how I coach. I know what it takes to perform under pressure, and I bring that perspective into every lesson I give.
About the coach
I'm the founder and Director of Instruction at House 53 Performance Academy, a nationally certified golf performance coach based in Woodruff, SC. My coaching system is built on a simple but powerful idea: elite golf development isn't just about the swing — it's about the whole athlete.
Since launching House 53 in 2017, I've delivered over 8,000 lessons to more than 700 players, helping them accumulate 110+ tournament wins, 300+ top-five finishes, and 19 collegiate signings. I've also helped more than 16 student-athletes earn college scholarships — results I'm incredibly proud of.
My background spans every level of the game. I've competed in 30+ professional events, earned three professional victories, and posted a T-4th finish at the 2021 US Open Local Qualifier. Before founding House 53, I served as Head Golf Coach at Deer Creek High School, then as Assistant Golf Professional and Director of Instruction at The Carolina Country Club in Spartanburg, SC — where I also developed a full junior development curriculum.
I hold certifications from the Titleist Performance Institute, the American Council on Exercise, and GolfPsych, and I'm a V1 Sports Content Ambassador. These credentials aren't just letters after my name — they represent a complete toolkit I use every day to help players improve faster and compete smarter. My lessons combine video swing analysis, ground pressure data, personalized fitness programming, and mental performance coaching into one unified, measurable development system.
Whether you're working on your game online or in person at Spartanburg, SC, I'm here to give you the structure, accountability, and precision coaching you need to reach your potential.
