Coaching Philosophy:
When coaching the focus is on guiding and supporting—not micro-managing. Fostering independence and enthusiasm in the course helps all players build confidence, resilience, and a genuine love for the game. This approach emphasizes encouragement and letting students learn from both successes and mistakes, while maintaining their fundamentals and growing their passion for golf.
About the Pro:
Brian is a skilled and approachable golf instructor with a thorough knowledge of the game, suitable for all levels. Whether you’re a beginner or an experienced player, Brian adapts his teaching to your individual goals, covering every aspect—from ball striking and distance to short-game performance. A four-year varsity letterman at Fairfield Prep, Brian earned a BBA in Business Economics from Loyola University Maryland. He spent ten years caddying at The Patterson Club and a year at Winged Foot Golf Club, which deepened his appreciation for golf’s traditions. Now a Level 1 PGA Associate through the Professional Golf Management (PGM) program, Brian continues to compete in USGA, Metropolitan Golf Association, and Connecticut State Golf Association events.
