How did you get started teaching?
Golf has been a very important part of my life since I began playing at the age of 12.
I began teaching golf full time with the encouragement of professional colleagues. I received a big push from Kelly Holmes-PGA, who was my mentor and close friend. I am a nurturing person, that seems to fit my teaching style.
What types of students have you worked with?
I have worked with students of all abilities, men, women, girls & boys. From someone who has never picked up a club to advanced low handicap players including college golfers.
