"Good guy! Worked with my swing didn’t try to completely reconstruct my swing. Gave me drill to work on!

I have an associate degree in Golf Course Management and a Masters in Public Administration. I worked on cruise lines like the Caribbean, Carnival Cruises, etc, for 10 years as a Golf Professional. The cruises were in Europe, the Caribbean, the US, and Hawaii. I taught lessons on sea days, set up tee times in port, and played with passengers. After the cruise lines, I worked at golf courses, mainly teaching. I enjoy teaching beginners to advanced players. I will accommodate individuals if they are more comfortable learning in groups. I'm experienced in using the V1 system for video analysis of the swing.
