About
I have been an avid and competitive golfer from the age of 9. I had a fruitful junior, amateur, and collegiate golf career. I played golf for bishop shanahan high school where I was the MVP multiple years, made all area, all district, and all state each year. I played in the State PIAA golf championship 3 years in a row with good finishes. In addition to high school golf my junior career took shape on multiple national junior golf tours. I played on the AJGA, IJGT, PJGT, and the list goes on. I received an honorary membership at downingtown county club. I also participated in local golf associations such as the philly junior PGA and GAP events. From high school I was recruited to play division 1 golf at St. Joseph's University. I played 4 years of division 1 golf and appeared in our A10 conference championship 3 years in a row. I have an extreme passion for teaching the skills and knowledge I have of the game of golf. I fully understand what it takes physically and mentally to be competitive or simply improve your game. I also welcome people new to the game. I look forward to meeting and working with you.
I enjoy helping others by sharing the knowledge I've acquired over my golf career experiences. I enjoy having the ability to have a positive impact on someone's life, from being a great example as a father for my daughter or in golf. Having a positive impact on someone's life is very rewarding in itself.
