Golf has been a part of my life for more than 3 decades. As an avid junior golfer, I won a club championship, made all conference my sophomore - senior year in high school. I was a part of 2 regional championship teams as well as an 11th place and 7th place finish in high school state championships. From a young age it’s been my passion. Now that I’m in corporate America being able to use my talents to help win numerous charity benefits and raise money for many great causes has been more than fulfilling. I’ve seen the game evolve from wooden drivers and shot shaping course management to now teeing it high and letting it fly. One of the best benefits about golf is not only can you enjoy the game your entire life but you can find satisfaction in the game no matter your skill level. So if you're just a beginner looking to dip your toes in the water, or if you’ve been playing golf for a long time and feel like you’ve plateaued and you’ll never get better, or maybe you're just tired of letting your buddies get in your wallet. Whatever the skill level, whatever the reason, I want to help you achieve the satisfaction and enjoyment that golf has to offer.

"Mrs. Lazaro completely transformed my son José’s academic trajectory in the first grade! Coming from a household that primarily communicates in Spanish, we needed an educator who could help him excel in English immersion. She used structured multi-sensory tools like Heggerty, UFLI, and Learning A-Z, carefully tracking his literacy metrics with mClass. In mathematics, she utilized McGraw-Hill resources alongside Aimsweb to ensure he reached the top-tier percentile. Beyond the incredible academic metrics, she fosters an incredibly creative classroom environment—she even organized the class to publish a collaborative book called 'Our Cosmic Landscape' where José authored and illustrated a real fable. Her teaching is intentional, data-driven, and full of heart!
