I’ve been passionate about golf since I was 10 years old and have spent over 35 years working in the golf industry. From humble beginnings washing clubs in country club bag shops to competing on Mini Tours across North America, the game has shaped every part of my journey.
I’m proud to be a Class A Member of the PGA of Canada, and I’ve been recognized as a Top 25 Quebec PGA Professional for three consecutive years.
During the summer months, I serve as the Director of Golf and Head Golf Professional at Mystic Pines Golf and Country Club. In the winter, I continue to share my knowledge by teaching indoors at my NDG training facility and Dickson Golf. I also provide custom club fittings for all major brands at Golf1600 throughout the off-season.

I discovered golf later than most, picking up the game at 15—and never looking back. After years of enjoying the sport as an amateur, I turned professional in 2007. My first role as an assistant teaching pro took me to Aruba for an unforgettable year before returning to Canada to marry, start a family, and continue teaching.
I was formally trained over three years under Ted Frick of the Carolina Professional Golf Association in South Carolina, blending his expertise with my own natural teaching style. I’ve also trained in club fitting and building under Don Irving of Artisan Golf, working with cutting-edge technology like TrackMan, ForesightFlightscope—the same trusted tool used on the PGA Tour.
I believe every golfer’s swing is unique and shouldn’t be forced into a mold. My approach is to guide players toward understanding the key moments at impact that create the results they want. From there, fine-tuning becomes an enjoyable process.
Golf is a game we all strive to improve at, and I’m no different—I’m always learning. In fact, I learn from every student I teach. Helping others improve not only grows their game, but mine as well.

I started my golf journey at the young age of 4 years old. Growing up, I would take golf road trips with my family, where we would stop at different courses to play a round. These trips taught me how to simply love the game of golf.
I wanted to become a golf professional so that I can help golfers of all skill levels achieve their goals. Whether you want to be good enough to play 18 holes with friends, or work towards becoming a golf professional yourself, I am here for you. My goal as a professional golfer is not to change your swing, but to clearly explain how and why certain things work the way they do in the golf swing. I want you to enjoy the world’s greatest game as much as I do.
I have developed my own teaching techniques naturally over the years by helping friends and family. My coach, Elie Koffman, has graciously taken me under his wing, and has provided me with unparalleled guidance that comes from his 25+ years of professional golf experience. From this knowledge, I have both improved as a player, as well as a teacher. I look forward to working together and sharing the intricacies of this beautiful game with all of you.
