About
I have been in the Golf industry for over 30 years and always strive for the best customer service. I will provide you with the tools needed to diagnose and repair your own golf swing. My passion is to help people enjoy the game of Golf from a higher perspective and create a comfortable environment they can feel confident in any situation on the course.
Nothing brings me more satisfaction than to see a smile from a student who understands how to how to swing with confidence. My goal is not to have you take endless golf lessons but to provide you with information that allows you to be your own teacher and practice with a purpose.

Frequently asked questions
What is your typical process for working with a new student?
New students will get an over all game evaluation. We will start with putting and chipping. From there, we can begin to develop skills that will transition into longer swings for your wedges and eventually the full swing. After the first lesson, we will develope a game plan and set some goals to maximize their potential.

Do you have a standard pricing system for your lessons? If so, please share the details here.
My standard pricing is $100/hr for an individual adult private lesson. Lesson packages are also available.
How did you get started teaching?
I first decided to teach golf full time after I moved back to Maryland from Los Angeles in 2001. I had been traveling and playing in golf tournaments for 7 years in Florida, Carolina's and California. But, I realized that my true passion for golf was helping others get better at their own game. I found an amazing job close to home and from there I fell in love with teaching the greatest game of all.
What types of students have you worked with?
I have worked with several juniors and adults over the years and age doesn't matter as much as their desire to learn. I have also taught several handicaped players; partially blind golfers and amputees'. Nothing can stop you if you put your mind to it.
Describe a recent event you are fond of.
Recently, I have been pondering how the older I get the better my golf swing and game are getting. Phil Mikelson and I are close in age and over the last couple years he has proven this to be true. He has shown us all that with hard work and determination we can do and overcome anything. Winning the PGA Campionship in 2021, he showed it to all of us and proved he still has more left in his tank for many years to come. He is still inspiring many people to watch and play the game at all levels.
