I began my professional journey in the United States Marine Corps, where I developed the leadership, discipline, communication, and team-building skills that continue to shape my coaching philosophy today. Following my military service, I pursued a degree in Golf Management at Keiser University, studying under Master PGA Professionals and top instructors. I earned my PGA Class A Membership in 2021.

Over the past decade, I’ve held leadership and coaching roles at several premier golf facilities, including Highland Oaks on the Robert Trent Jones Golf Trail, The Grand Hotel Golf Resort & Spa, and Doublegate Country Club, where I advanced to Director of Golf and Head Golf Professional. In these roles, I managed multi-million-dollar operations, led large staffs, and developed programs focused on player development, junior golf growth, and community engagement. Career highlights include increasing golf and merchandise revenues, launching junior programs with more than 100 participants, and hosting elite professional events such as the LPGA Q-Series and Korn Ferry Tour tournaments.

Instruction has always been at the core of my career. I’ve been recognized as a U.S. Kids Golf Top 50 Coach, earned multiple player development certifications, and built teaching programs that combine modern technology with individualized coaching. Most recently, I founded The Swing Lab by King Performance Golf in Dothan, Alabama—a state-of-the-art indoor training facility designed to help golfers of all skill levels improve with purpose and structure.

My coaching approach blends proven fundamentals, clear communication, and goal-driven training, all rooted in a commitment to developing better golfers and growing the game through accessible, high-quality instruction.
