Building better golfers from the ground up, swing to mindset.
Golf has been part of my life since before I can really remember. After years of competitive play and four First-Team All-Conference honors in high school, I developed a deep appreciation for what it actually takes to improve - technically and mentally. I coach swing fundamentals, short game, and the mental side of golf that most people overlook. I work with all ages and all skill levels, and my goal is always the same: help you leave the course feeling better than when you started.

About Me:
I'm originally from Lakeville, Minnesota and went to college at Xavier University. Golf has been a part of my life since I was four years old, and the game has taught me more than I ever expected, about patience, focus, and how to compete under pressure. I played six years of competitive golf in high school, five of them as a varsity starter, and those experiences shaped the way I think about the game and what it takes to genuinely improve
How I can help you improve your game:
I am versed in all aspects of the game: long game, short game, and the mental game. I will help walk you through the complexity of a golf swing and what is best fit for you, how to cut down strokes from putts and be confident when chipping, as well as show you how much reactions and attitude will affect your overall score.
What a typical training session looks like with me:
Trainings with me will be personalized and intentional, everybody has different swings and each will be analyzed accordingly, as well as making a set of goals for how we want to develop it further. Basics across the short game can be sprinkled in or full time focused, and open about talk mental game through really getting to know you!
Career summary and accomplishments:
- 4x First Team All-Conference
- Top 5 individual finish at sections
- 5-year varsity starter
- 2-year team captain
Best coach I ever had:
The best coach I ever had was Sheryl Maize, and LPGA top 50 teaching pro who has achieved so much throughout her career. She always believed in me, dialed down the aspects of my swing, and got to know me on a personal level to help me through my life, not just golf.
What athletes and parents should know about me:
This sport is near and dear to my heart, and I also know how tough it can get. I aspire to be the coach that makes you want to keep going, as well as a friend and mentor for years to come.

Frequently Asked Questions
How do I contact a coach?
If you’re looking to message a coach for the first time, go to their profile and click “Send a Message”. A type box will show, where you can enter and send your message. To follow up with a coach you've already contacted, log into your account and find the 'Inbox' tab. You'll see your message history and be able to send another note.
How do I book lessons?
Once you find a coach that fits your needs, go to their profile, select the package you'd like to purchase, and click 'Book Lessons'. Here, you can reserve your desired number of lessons along with the number of athletes who will be training. After sessions are booked, coordinate the dates/times for each session on your calendar - using the calendar is important since this is how your coach will get paid.
Can I pay my coach via Venmo or cash?
Paying AU coaches via cash, Venmo, or any 3rd party is strictly prohibited. AU coaches know this, but their partnership with us is to split all bookings 80/20 - so coaches keep 80%. We use our 20% to help them find clients & manage their business. Without the split, we wouldn't be able to help our coaches & community thrive!
What if I don't feel comfortable paying online?
We integrate with Stripe - the largest & most secure payment processor in the US - to facilitate bookings. Paying online is required, and it simplifies the process for our coaches since it helps track their schedule & earnings in one place. If you have any questions or concerns, please contact our support team.
Where will the coach hold their lessons?
Each coach typically has at least one preferred training location. You can see the location(s) by going to your coach's profile and finding the 'Training Locations' section. If a coach doesn't have locations listed here, you can message the coach to see where they train. Some coaches are willing to travel to clients for lessons, or even meet halfway.
When is the coach available to train?
Each coach sets their own schedule for training. You can see a coach's general availability by going to their profile and finding the 'Availability' section - it will list the days and times. If a coach doesn't post their availability, or if your preferred coach doesn't have your desired times available but you want to double check, message them to see if they can work with your schedule.
How do rescheduling, cancellations, and lesson credits work?
Good Fit Guarantee — If your first lesson isn't the right fit, we'll move your lesson credit to a new coach. No hassle.
Easy rescheduling — Cancel or reschedule up to 4 hours before a lesson, no questions asked.
Coach no-shows — You'll be fully credited and we'll help you find a replacement.
Flexible credits — Unused lessons last 12 months and can be used with any coach on the platform.

Do coaches work with both kids & adults?
Our coaches are open to helping athletes of any age and skill level. Please message your desired coach to ensure their skillset fits your needs.
Why should I trust AU and their coaches over other platforms?

It develops discipline, boosts confidence, and provides an undeniable advantage - whether you are just learning the game or looking to earn a college scholarship. All AU coaches are required to pass a thorough onboarding process + background check, so you can trust you're training with the best.
At the end of the day, our mission is to provide athletes with better opportunities to succeed through coaching. You won't find a platform, and group of dedicated specialists, more excited to help you achieve your athletic goals!
