How did you get started teaching?
I grew up caddying and fell in love with the game. After graduating with a golf scholarship from Indiana University, I have been in the private club industry ever since. Through my experience I think I can help any one who wants to improve their game.
What types of students have you worked with?
I've crossed all demographics- male, female, seniors, juniors, low and high handicappers. Most of my experience has been with females, snd beginners.
Describe a recent event you are fond of.
I was hitting balls at Doortsnsns driving range in Northbrook a few months back. A few stalls away a golfer was struggling with topping the ball. I introduced myself and gave a quick tip, after a few minutes the golfer was getting the ball in the air. She was extremely happy.
What advice would you give a student looking to hire a teacher in your area of expertise?
Don't be afraid to get a lesson, myself along with so many teaching pros have seen a lot of golf swings. There are a lot of pros like myself that can help you . Take one lesson and see how it goes. You should see some type of improvement after that first lesson, if not seek someone else.
