"Game-Changer Inside 50 Yards!  If you want to shave strokes off your scorecard, you need to work with Daniel. He is an exceptional golf instructor with a knack for breaking down complex mechanics into simple, actionable feels.  Before working with him, my short game inside 50 yards was costing me countless shots. Daniel completely revolutionized my approach by introducing me to the bump-and-run. He adjusted my setup—getting my weight forward and narrowing my stance—and taught me how to read the green to pick the perfect landing spot rather than just aiming for the pin.  Thanks to his clear cues and patience, I’ve replaced high-risk, stressful flop shots with a dependable, controlled bump-and-run. My contact is cleaner, my distance control is dialed in, and my scoring inside 50 yards has drastically improved. If you want to transform your short game, Daniel is your guy!

My love for Pickleball began in 2011, during a time when lessons were scarce. Upon moving to the west side of Michigan, I found coaches who helped me correct numerous bad habits. After extensive lessons and attending many camps, I began sharing my knowledge with others. I started formally giving lessons in 2017 and became a PPR certified coach in 2019.
