Assistant PGA Professional | The Dye Club at Barefoot Resort 4 Years of Experience | PGA Associate – Level 2 (Teaching & Coaching Focus)

I am an Assistant PGA Professional at The Dye Club in Barefoot Resort, with four years of hands-on experience in instruction and player development. Currently completing Level 2 of the PGA Program, I am specializing in Teaching and Coaching, with a strong passion for helping players of all ages improve and enjoy the game.

Prior to my career in golf, I spent 35 successful years in the Washington, D.C. area as a top-performing outside sales executive and sales trainer. During that time, I developed a deep love for golf—often playing with clients and recognizing the game's unique ability to build relationships and teach valuable life skills.

After retiring and relocating to the Myrtle Beach area in 2019, I was inspired to pursue a second career in golf as a PGA Professional. I served as the Lead Coach for The First Tee in my area for three years, mentoring junior golfers until the local chapter closed. Today, I continue to coach junior golfers (ages 8–15) and senior players, focusing on simplifying the game, keeping it fun, and helping each golfer reach their potential.

My mission is to make golf accessible, enjoyable, and rewarding for every student I work with.
