About the coach

To me it is that simple. I am blessed to be in the position I am in, being able to do what I love while at the same time helping people achieve their goals and aspirations. The relationships I build with my students are bigger than golf and I enjoy that building process.

I began teaching in 2016 on a limited basis up until 2018 when I took my current position at Turning Stone Resort Casino. This world class facility provides an opportunity to my students to receive instruction, club fitting and golf programming 365 days a year.

My teaching style is based on my students. We develop a plan so that you can deliver the golf club on a consistent basis through proper body movements designed to stabilize impact for better club face control. It is important for all of my students to understand the “WHY” so they have the ability to correct themselves.

Teach | Develop | Play - As an instructor I believe in the motto “practice what you preach”. I take my playing ability very serious as I want to set an example to all of my students. I enjoy the process of getting better as a player and a teacher.
