A native of Hamilton, New Jersey, Matthew attended Campbell University in Buies Creek, NC and received his Bachelor’s of Business Management with a concentration in Professional Golf Management, PGM. While at Campbell he studied with and learned from David Orr and was exposed to many other instructors and their methods, AimPoint, TPI fitness evaluations, and he also received an additional teaching certification in The Golfing Machine LLC, a certification that focuses on the geometry and physics of the golf swing.
For the last three years Matthew has been employed as an Assistant Professional at River North Country Club, where he used his unique instructional philosophy and club fitting expertise to enhance the daily member experience. Currently he is a focusing solely on teaching and coaching at Barrington Hall Country Club. Prior to joining River North, Matt served as a Head Professional at Greencastle Golf Club and at Stonybrook Golf Course in southern Pennsylvania and New Jersey and also worked as an Assistant Professional at Makefield Highlands. He was also employed by InClubGolf as Director of Golf Programming at the Newtown Athletic Club in Newtown, PA. There he was privileged to work with Trackman launch monitors and video analysis to explain to students their errors, shortening the learning curve, and aiding in their overall understanding of the golf swing. He is confident that by building a solid foundation rooted in fundamentals, that are understood individually, so “you” the student can begin to increase your knowledge of the golf swing. This method of learning will create confidence in the proper mechanics which we will then be related into a feel. That feel is what you should bring into each swing you take, not the mechanics.
