"My 9 year old son loves being coached by him. What I liked most about him that he came prepared and his lessons are structured. Will work with him.

With almost 30 years of competitive golf experience and more than 5 years teaching the game of golf, I combine deep technical expertise with a hands on approach to help the student achieve the proper techniques used in the golf swing.  I use an everyday, practical teaching method to help my students understand the golf swing by using familiar daily movements.  Whether it’s tossing a cup of water over your shoulder or holding a tray like a waiter, these comparisons make complex motions easier to grasp.  I am currently a PGA Affiliate and plan to be be fully a certified member of the Professional Golf Association of America (PGA) by 2026.  I have a love and a passion for helping my students reach their full potential and am excited about introducing and expanding the game of golf to others.

"Ascot explained what I needed to do very well. He was patient and gave consistent feedback

My journey in racket sports began at 9, swiftly ascending the ranks as a junior to qualify for the prestigious New York State High School Championship. Transitioning to collegiate singles and later leagues in Chicago, I found my passion reignited when I stumbled upon Pickleball, relishing its social camaraderie and forging new friendships. Now, as an avid player and coach, I delight in sharing my expertise, ensuring every lesson is not just about improvement but about relishing the court's thrill. Let's ace your goals together, one match at a time! For fellow Tennis players, I played tennis for 40 years, and was a tournament player and teaching pro for tennis during college.    A lot of tennis players move over to pickle and that makes sense, but there are some key differences in the games, both with the way you swing and in strategy, things you should know and can learn pretty quickly on court.    I'm here to help.
