I have been the PGA Head Golf Professional at Timberlin Golf Club since 2011. I am also the Tournament Director for the NEW Under Armour Junior Tour New England starting in the Spring of 2022. I have been fortunate to receive the honors of being named the 2020 CT PGA Teacher of the Year and 2015 CT PGA Youth Player Development Award recipient. My certifications include being ADM Certified, Level 1 Super Speed Golf Certified , and Level 1 U.S. Kids Coaching Certified. I love coaching competitive players as I am still one myself. My playing highlights include being the 2018 CT PGA Championship Runner Up, 2017 CT PGA Stroke Play Championship Runner Up, a 4X Julius Boros Challenge Cup Member, and being a member of the St. Leo University Golf Team (Dade City, FL) 2001-2005. I also have a great passion in coaching youth golfers as I have 2 kids myself who love the game (Marc 8 & Max 7). My teaching philosophy is to create a learning environment that promotes enjoyment for all skill levels.
