In the beginning, I started playing golf when I was just 16 years old. Before that, I grew up playing Ice Hockey on Long Island. I attended the 2002 US Open at Bethpage Black with my Dad, went to the driving range after that just down the street, and the rest is history. I instantly fell in love with the game. The challenge of the game, paired with my drive and discipline that was instilled in me as a highly competitive hockey player pushed me to get better every day.

My Passion for the Game will not go unnoticed if you spend even just a half hour with me. After starting golf, going on to play junior tournaments on Long Island, and then vacationing to places like Myrtle Beach & Hilton Head Island, it was hard not be around golf. Long story short, I attended a golf camp in Hilton Head, which ended up being where I finished my junior and senior year of High School at the International Junior Golf Academy. I went on from there to complete my Bachelor’s Degree in Business Management & earn my Class A PGA Membership in 2011 from Coastal Carolina University in Myrtle Beach, SC.

Junior Golf is always something I’ve had strong ties to. I went away to golf school as a junior, competed in junior golf tournaments nationwide, ran the junior tour for the Met Section of the PGA for internships, and continued managing all Junior Instruction programs & camps at almost every facility during my PGA Professional Career. I have also volunteered to teach a few clinics at the First Tee of the Palm Beaches as well.

My Goals & Dreams consisted of competing on the PGA Tour. Although somewhat close, having made it through a few stages of Q School in the past, that life just became too expensive and cumbersome. I have since moved to South Florida full - time with my wife Kristen, and now our two sons, Brayden (3) & Greyson (1). I now dream to have my own Golf Academy one day and still compete at a high level in our amazing South Florida Section.
