My journey in golf began at age five, competing in tournaments by age nine. I proudly represented Davis Senior High School's Varsity golf team for all four years. Although I didn't make the cut for the University of Oregon's D1 golf team, my passion for the sport remained undiminished. During high school, I shared my love for golf by coaching kids at the Golf and Splash summer camp in Davis. Now, I'm committed to regular practice, striving to lower my index back to scratch.

Beginner training plan
Your first lessonGolf is really hard so I’m going to try to prepare you mentally for your journey. No reason to be nervous. Everyone starts as a beginner. Grip, posture, tempo is where we will start and we will hit some balls on the range.
Lesson 11+You will be playing golf hopefully between lessons at this point. Reporting to me how your outings went and we will work on the weak parts of your game to lower your scores
Lesson 4-10We will continue to work on technique and tempo as well as club transitioning and course management. We will spend some time putting and chipping as well.
Lesson 2-3We will be on the driving range working on technique and form.
