    Just had my first lesson and looking forward to the next. John made me feel super comfortable right away and we covered a lot in an hour. My main concern about working with an instructor was that I would be really nervous, but that was no problem at all and his tips made perfect sense.

    Frequently asked questions

    My typical process of working with a new student is to access his or her physical level and skill level and give them the best instruction that will work best for their individual swing.  I'm not here to make them Tiger Wood's but to help them enjoy playing the game and if that means playing it at an advanced level, so be it.  

     I recently relocated to Southern California from Chicago where I was a PGA Professional for 20 years.  I look forward to continuing my career here in So Cal. In my career I have had the pleasure of teaching all skill levels of players, boys and girls, men and women. My goal is to continue to grow the game by bringing as many new golfers to the game as possible, and making it fun for all of them!

    As I became passionate about the game 30 years ago and decided to become a PGA Professional, my enjoyment in the game obviously beside playing it, was to watch my students enjoy it as well.
