About this pro
I am a teacher and a coach. I have had no other responsibilities or jobs in golf since 1991.
Taking lessons from a full-time teacher is different than taking lessons with a Head Golf Professional who has many other hats to wear every day.
New England PGA Teacher of the Year 2002 and 2012.
Voted #1 Teacher in Massachusetts by peers in Golf Digest, 2005 and 2013.
I like helping people, solving puzzles, and simplifying the process. I like that no two golf swings are the same and no two people think alike. Change makes it fun!
PGA Certified in Teaching & Coaching
