My Story

I turned pro in the summer of 2015, immediately diving into teaching fellow golfers and playing tournament golf.

Playing Accomplishments:

2 Pro wins

Won the inaugural CT PGA Open at Gillette Ridge shooting rounds of 65-71 (-8)

Won The Gately Cup at CT National shooting rounds of 66-68 (-8)

3 time US Open Local Qualifying Medalist

A long list of other top 5s and top 10s

Starting teaching in 2015 and have accumulated thousands of hours of lessons.

I have a pretty simple philosophy to teaching golf. Make the swing as simple and as repeatable as possible. My saying is: simple is repeatable, repeatable is consistent. Everyone wants consistency in their shots, but that starts in the movement pattern. Learning correct movements starting with your lower body is the key to a successful, repeatable and consistent swing.

Every player moves and learns differently so each player gets taught differently. Many factors go into assessing a swing and how the individual is going to move their body and the club the best way for them. I assess and make the adjustments necessary to get each player going in the correct direction. Making meaningful swing changes to improve your game is a process and will take work by you the student. Please do not expect drastic changes to happen right away. Movement pattern changes take a while to truly engrain. You have to break pattern habit, then build new pattern. That is not something that happens quickly.

I have taught players of all levels, from true beginners to fellow pro golfers. This drastic change in skill level has given me the ability to adjust my teaching style on the go and tailor it to the individual student.
