Full time coaching professional for over 15 years, first started coaching in the Middle East in 2008 (Qatar). 15 years coaching experience in the Middle East, including 5 years previously in Abu Dhabi (City golf club). Various additional coaching achievements including achieving TPI level 1,2, and juniors certifications, K-vest certified, Trackman and Sam putt lab trained. Always looked to develop and further my coaching career through attending coaching seminars around the world and online. Coaching philosophy very much influenced by world renowned tour coach Pete Cowan, ‘Coach the player, not the method.’ I believe every player has their own individual strengths and weaknesses, therefore the golf swing technique needs to be adapted according to the person I am working with. No golf swing is the same. Fun facts - best tournament score was 65 (par 71 course). At Lees Hall golf club, Sheffield, England. Favourites golf course is Black Mountain golf club, Hua Hin, Thailand
