“Joshua is a great coach. He’s patient and definitely knows what to correct and tells you what you need to practice. I can already feel a difference in my swing and I know that I will be lowering my score in the course!”Rigoberto J., student
About JoshuaIf you’re serious about improving your golf game, you’re in the right place.
I work with golfers who want real results—lower scores, better consistency, and the confidence to perform on the course. Whether you’re trying to break 100, 90, or take your game to a competitive level, my coaching is designed to get you there efficiently.
With over 30 years of playing experience, 15+ years of coaching, a 1.2 handicap, and 400+ lessons given, I bring a high-level, results-driven approach to every session. This isn’t guesswork or generic instruction—every lesson is tailored to your swing, your tendencies, and your goals.
My philosophy is simple: identify what’s truly holding you back, make the right adjustments, and help you see improvement quickly. Most golfers don’t need a complete swing overhaul—they need the right guidance and understanding that translates directly to better performance on the course.

“That lesson with Andrew was quite helpful, especially since my kid really enjoyed the encouragement and learning new techniques. Though, I think working on better angles could really give more improvement. The enthusiasm was good, it's nice to see the kids engaged. Maybe some focus there next time would make a real difference. If you're considering lessons, Andrew's approachable style is worth trying out.”Erica S., parentAbout AndrewUnlocking your golfing potential is my passion!
