Teaching Philosophy
My coaching philosophy comes down to three things: keep it simple, keep it fun, and build real skills through repetition — not swing theory overload. Golf can be an incredibly complex game, but I've found that the golfers who improve fastest are the ones who master a few key fundamentals rather than chase every new tip or technique. I focus on the things that actually move the needle — grip, routine, short game feel — and I let students experience success early so they build genuine confidence in their swing. That confidence is what carries onto the course when it matters. I'm a firm believer in quality over quantity. Whether you have 30 minutes or two hours to practise, working on the right things in the right way beats aimless repetition every time. I use video analysis and playing lessons alongside range work so students understand not just what to change, but why — and how it feels when they get it right. Having played professional golf myself, I know what it takes to perform under pressure, and I bring that practical, real-world perspective to every lesson. My goal is always the same: make you a better, more confident golfer who enjoys the game more.
About the coach
I'm a PGA of Australia AA Professional and the Head Teaching Professional at Long Reef Golf Club on Sydney's Northern Beaches — a role I've held since 2016. My journey in golf started on the Australasian Tour as a playing professional, but it was coaching that truly captured my passion. After completing my PGA traineeship at Penrith Golf Club and gaining experience competing at a professional level, I made the full commitment to teaching — and I haven't looked back.
Over the past decade-plus, I've dedicated myself entirely to helping golfers improve, working with everyone from first-timers picking up a club for the first time, through to elite competitors. At Long Reef, I've had the privilege of building one of the strongest junior and women's golf programs on the Northern Beaches, which remains one of my proudest achievements.
My methodology is simple: 'Simplicity is Key.' I cut through the noise of swing theory and focus on the fundamentals that genuinely make a difference. I identify swing errors quickly, deliver changes in a way that's easy to understand, and structure lessons so students feel improvement happening — not just hear about it. That breeds real confidence, and confident golfers score better.
Whether you're looking to break 100 for the first time, sharpen your short game, or take your elite game to the next level, I'll meet you where you are and build a clear path forward. Golf should be enjoyable at every stage of the journey — and that's exactly the environment I create.
