PGA Member on the Oregon Coast at Astoria Golf and Country Club. I have been recognized for my work with junior students as the recipient of the 2020 Youth Player Development award for the Oregon Chapter and Pacific Northwest Section PGA. However, the majority of my students are adults and I enjoy working with students of any age. Ultimately, I am a coach for players of all abilities including beginners, juniors, hackers, seniors, degenerates and professionals. My coaching philosophy centers around providing simple, clear instructions to my students. Everyone has experienced the “fog” of too many swing thoughts or feelings. This mental clutter distracts from the intentional focus necessary for improvement. I help my students create lasting, meaningful change as efficiently as possible by focusing on one concept at a time and filtering out what is getting in the way of results.
