I’m a high school health and PE teacher with a dense sports background. Football was my main sport but I’ve been playing golf for almost 12 years now, currently hold a USGA 14.5 handicap. Built on an approach to move tee to green as efficiently as possible. Most amateur golfers philosophy is to par as much as you can but, what they don’t realize is if you bogey 18 holes of golf, you would shoot a 90. My goal for anyone who comes to me is to feel confident and become competitive in every round of golf they play.

Born in China and I came to the US when I was 15. I joined local swim team in Beijing when I was 7, I won 6 first place in regional competition when I was 12. I started playing basketball at 13, at the same time, I was recommended by middle school coach to run track, 100 meter, 200 meter, 300 hurdle, 4x100 and 4x400. In 2018 I was in the state meet competing. I was not the most physically gifted runner so I had to study the forms, techniques. I love the game of basketball and I experienced basketball from both cultures. I played JV in middle school and Varsity in High school, I played shooting guard position. Being not the most physically gifted, I had to work extra hard on my skills, understanding the game. I truly believe coaching track, swimming, basketball or any sports is bigger/more than just teaching youngsters the skills, it’s about life, lessons we learn from playing sports, spending time and energy to understand each other and one self. With 14 years of basketball instruction, I cultivate skills and passion on the court. I provide tailored coaching and unlock player potential through expert guidance and personalized training. I foster a positive and focused environment.

I am a football coach with only 2 years of experience, but I have a good approach with all students.
