About your golf coach

I’m a +4.2 handicap and former college golfer at Cal State San Marcos with competitive experience including the U.S. Amateur at Pebble Beach and multiple wins in Southern California amateur events. I teach golfers of all levels, from beginners to low handicaps. My coaching is simple and focused on lowering scores by improving contact, eliminating big misses, and building smarter course management without overcomplicating the swing.

Beginner training plan
Your first lessonThe first lesson is all about getting comfortable. We’ll go over the basics of grip, posture, alignment, and making solid contact with the ball. I like to keep things simple and fun while getting a feel for your natural swing and athletic ability. My goal is to help you leave the first lesson hitting better shots and feeling excited to practice.
Lesson 2-3By lessons two and three, we’ll start building consistency. We’ll reinforce the fundamentals, work on ball striking, and introduce different clubs and basic short game skills. You’ll begin to understand why the ball does what it does and develop drills you can use on your own between lessons.
Lesson 4-10These lessons are where things really start coming together. We’ll continue improving your swing mechanics, develop your short game, and work on course-ready skills like chipping, pitching, and putting. You’ll gain confidence, learn how to practice effectively, and start seeing more consistent results on the course.
Lesson 11+At this stage, the focus shifts to helping you play better golf rather than just swing better. We’ll work on course management, shot selection, troubleshooting common mistakes, and refining the areas that will lower your scores the fastest. Every golfer progresses differently, so lessons become more personalized based on your goals and strengths.

Advanced training plan
Your first lessonThe first lesson is focused on evaluation and goal setting. We’ll analyze your swing, ball flight patterns, short game, and overall performance to identify what’s holding you back. Whether you’re trying to lower your handicap, gain distance, improve consistency, or prepare for competition, we’ll create a clear plan tailored to your goals.
Lesson 2-3Once we’ve identified the key areas for improvement, we’ll start making targeted changes and building drills around them. We’ll use ball flight feedback, course situations, and performance data to help you understand not just what to change, but why. These lessons establish the foundation for long-term improvement.
Lesson 4-10During this phase, we’ll refine swing mechanics, improve scoring skills, and develop greater consistency under pressure. We’ll focus on areas such as distance control, shot shaping, wedge play, putting, and course management. The goal is to turn technical improvements into lower scores and more confidence on the course.
Lesson 11+As your game develops, lessons become highly personalized and performance-driven. We’ll continue fine-tuning your swing, addressing weaknesses as they arise, and focusing on scoring opportunities. Whether you’re chasing a scratch handicap, tournament success, or simply more consistent golf, we’ll adapt the coaching plan to keep you progressing.

Youth players
Working with kidsMy goal with young golfers is to make learning fun while building strong fundamentals. I focus on creating a positive, encouraging environment where kids can develop confidence, coordination, and a love for the game. Lessons are engaging, age-appropriate, and designed to keep players excited about improving.

Working with teenagersFor teenage golfers, I balance skill development with goal-oriented coaching. Whether they’re new to the game, playing competitively, or working toward high school golf, lessons focus on improving fundamentals, building confidence, and developing the practice habits needed for long-term success on the course.
