With 23 years full time coaching experience around the world I am a very experienced and passionate coach and enjoy helping all golfers from beginners to professionals improve their game.
I have worked extensively in all levels of coaching. Prior to coaching at Links Hope Island I completed my traineeship in Brisbane (1996-1998), becoming a full PGA member in 1998. Over the following years I held a PGA Tour Card (Australasian Tour) and resided in Germany from 1999 until 2016 where I taught at my own two golf academies. I have also worked as Head Coach at the Australian P.G.A in Sandhurst, Melbourne.
I speak English (first language) and am fluent in German. I hold a current Blue Card and am approved to work with NDIS clients.
I work at Links Hope Island, Gold Coast, Queensland.
