About the coach

I'm a PGA of Canada Class A Professional and Director of Instruction at the Geared to Golf Performance Centre, based in Brooklin, Ontario. With over 15 years of coaching experience, I've had the privilege of conducting thousands of lessons and working with golfers of all levels — from motivated beginners to NCAA Division I competitors in the United States.

My background is built on a foundation of science and performance. I hold TPI Level 2 certifications in Golf, Fitness, and Strength, and I've completed advanced training in the 3D biomechanics of golf. In my coaching, I leverage Trackman launch monitor data and force plate technology to deliver the kind of precise, objective feedback that elite performance demands.

At my Geared to Golf Performance Centre, I've built an environment focused on high-level instruction and junior athlete development — a space where serious golfers come to get serious results. Whether I'm helping a junior reach their competitive potential, working with an amateur to break a scoring plateau, or refining the game of an elite player, my process is always rooted in identifying the real cause of the problem before prescribing the solution.

I screen every student across four dimensions: technique, physical ability, equipment suitability, and mental game. This diagnostic-first approach lets me create truly customised training plans — and more importantly, manage those plans through to completion. I don't hand you a programme and wave goodbye; I stay invested in your journey every step of the way. With me, excellence isn't just the goal — it's the standard.
