Hi! I’m Craig-a skilled instructor and patient teacher of golf, dedicated to helping students of all levels improve their game and enjoy golf:) I’ve competed in amateur tournaments around the world, gaining valuable insights along the way. My experience allows me to customize lessons for each student’s needs and skill sets. I have learned how to get each student, regardless of skill level, to square the club-face through impact which is the most important aspect of the golf swing. My Master’s Degree in Sports Psychology from Purdue University allows me to explain concepts in a way that my students understand. My goal is to empower each player to their full potential and ensure my students reach their individual goals. I truly look forward to hearing from you:)

"Craig is friendly and a great communicator. Things that I've been told before that never made sense immediately clicked when Craig explained the what and the why. Shortly into the lesson, he tweaked some of my mechanics and had me hitting some really good iron shots. Ball flight was straighter and further than they've ever been.
