I’ve been playing golf since 2008 and I’m currently a 3 handicap, I got my start in college, working as a pro shop assistant at a country club where I gave lessons to members. I also caddied for a while, which gave me a great look at the game from the other side - reading courses, managing strategy. My approach is simple: I work with the swing you’ve already got instead of tearing it apart and starting over.

I have a wealth of football experience coaching youth football, high school, Division I college, and in the NFL.

My coaching experience expands over 10 years. I've coached and trained players from the middle school, high school, and collegiate level. My expertise is with point guard/shooting guard skill work including ball handling, proper shooting form, rep shooting, decision making skills, and off ball skill development. Our first session would be more of an evaluation. We'd go through a warm up then transition into ball handling skills and finish with shooting form/drills.

"Great morning! Hope you have been doing well. I just wanted to give you your flowers this morning. The training Reese received from you really gave her a push in all areas. My cousin and I (the one who use to walk with me) said the training did so much for her mentally and physically. She was swimming with the swim team and told me she wanted to cry but she just decided to push through. I love it! Anyway, just wanted you to know you have made a difference. Have a great weekend!!
