About Billy

At a young age, I was introduced to the game of golf by my maternal Grandfather. I was lucky enough to grow up playing and learning the game from him at Medinah Country Club. I played competitive golf as a junior, followed by both high school and college golf. After college, I spent most of my time coaching AAU basketball. During that time I took a break from golf. It wasn't until I moved to San Francisco when I rediscovered my love for the game. I worked hard at my game and at my job and became a PGA Member in January of 2017. I am currently the PGA Assistant Golf Professional at Indian Hill Club in Winnetka, Illinois. Prior to moving to Chicago, I spent 12 years in San Francisco working at some of the top public and private golf clubs holding positions as an outside service attendant early in my career to the Head Golf Professional towards the end of my tenure in California. I also served as the Head Varsity Golf Coach for 10 years at San Francisco University High School. I teach golfers of all ages and skill levels. For beginners, I focus on fundamentals. For more intermediate and advanced golfers, I put them in "game like situations" out on the golf course, teaching them course management, focus, confidence and to trust their swings. I believe that golfers should be grateful for being able to play this game. It's not about the outcome, it's about the journey and the person you become. Through the game of golf you can learn a lot of important life principles.
