"It was so much fun Really enjoyed our instructor!

Raised amidst the picturesque landscapes of Sweden, I embarked on my golfing odyssey at the age of six, laying the foundation for a lifelong passion. Earning a coveted scholarship to UC Davis in California, I further honed my skills on the collegiate circuit, blending academic pursuits with a love for the game. From the age of 17, I've shared my expertise as a golf instructor intermittently, cultivating a deep understanding of the sport while nurturing aspiring talents. With a penchant for power and precision, my trusty driver remains my favorite tool, propelling me towards new heights on the fairway.

With 16 years experience in piano instruction, I cultivate musical passion in students of all ages, but have mainly worked with children ages 3 -14 years old. My tailored approach blends technique with artistry, unlocking each student's unique potential. Aside from my 25+ years playing the piano, I also am studying the steel tongue drum, fipple flute, & ukelele. While I am not fluent in Spanish or ASL, I do know some basic communication that I can utilize. I genuinely enjoy creating lesson plans for you/your children and fostering an environment where you are free to grow and explore at your own pace. I have successfully worked with a diverse clientele with various needs, including children and adults on the autism spectrum, persons with ADD/ADHD, left-handed inviduduals, and people with varied physical impairments. I believe anyone can thrive in the right environment & I would love to guide you/your children through learning a new skill set, along with growing and exploring your passions/curiosities in the world of music :) Let's get started!

Clear, Confident, Concise I communicate in a way that meets each player’s needs.

I enjoy guiding players, creating structure, and building skills so they feel comfortable as they learn the game.

"Diane was always on time, professional, and knowledgeable.  She led classes everyone enjoyed and brought a positive, fun vibe to each session.  Highly recommend!!

Experienced golf instructor with the ability to introduce the game to the most novice beginners or tweak the experienced, competitive swing. I’ve been playing golf my entire life from the time my father brought me to the driving range & his clubs were as tall as me! The game is easy, but it can also be as hard as you want to make it. I like to start from where you are and enhance your game as much or as little as you’d like!

"Adan's lesson was quite helpful, especially the way he broke down shot placement and footwork. Although I still need to refine my backhand, I appreciated his focus on practical drills. Still, I feel more confident about my game now and might try another lesson soon.
