Golf has been a part of my life for more than 3 decades. As an avid junior golfer, I won a club championship, made all conference my sophomore - senior year in high school. I was a part of 2 regional championship teams as well as an 11th place and 7th place finish in high school state championships. From a young age it’s been my passion. Now that I’m in corporate America being able to use my talents to help win numerous charity benefits and raise money for many great causes has been more than fulfilling. I’ve seen the game evolve from wooden drivers and shot shaping course management to now teeing it high and letting it fly. One of the best benefits about golf is not only can you enjoy the game your entire life but you can find satisfaction in the game no matter your skill level. So if you're just a beginner looking to dip your toes in the water, or if you’ve been playing golf for a long time and feel like you’ve plateaued and you’ll never get better, or maybe you're just tired of letting your buddies get in your wallet. Whatever the skill level, whatever the reason, I want to help you achieve the satisfaction and enjoyment that golf has to offer.

TJ brings over 15 years of experience across high school varsity teams, recreational programs, camps, and clinics in the UK and the US. In the UK, he coached in Cambridge, London, Essex, and Wiltshire, while his US coaching journey spans New Hampshire, New York, New Jersey, North Carolina, South Carolina, and Georgia. With a strong foundation in both American and British sports environments, he offers a versatile, adaptive coaching style that supports players' growth at all levels.

"Tj's lesson focused on practicing forehand and backhand, which I appreciated since it helped reinforce my basics. Still, I think doing more of the same could be beneficial, maybe mixing in some variety later. But overall, it was quite helpful, and I’d suggest giving Tj a try if you're looking to refine fundamentals.

"Very easy talk to,very professional,she helped me a lot

I’ve spent over 30 years immersed in the world of tennis, a passion that’s deeply woven into my family’s life. My two sons are also tennis enthusiasts—one plays at the collegiate level while the other is a junior ranked both statewide and nationally. Their dedication has fueled my own love for the game, allowing me to continue playing, teaching, and savoring every moment on the court.

"That lesson focused on drills, which really helped me work on specific skills. Though I still have some areas to improve, I feel more confident about my game now and look forward to practicing what I learned. Victor's approach is quite straightforward but effective, so I’d suggest giving him a try if you want targeted practice with a calm, measured style.

Golf has been a lifelong pursuit of mine, beginning in a country club environment where I started playing as soon as I could walk. I received structured professional instruction from ages 3–18 and competed extensively in junior tournament golf, including AGJA events and high-level regional competition. I was the #1 player in my high school and was on track to compete at the collegiate level before health-related circumstances shifted my path. That experience deepened my understanding of both the physical and mental demands of competitive golf. My background is rooted heavily in tournament preparation—learning how to structure practice, manage scoring expectations, and perform under pressure. After college, I transitioned into coaching and have spent years giving lessons to players of all levels, with a focus on simplifying mechanics, improving consistency, and building repeatable scoring systems. Whether you’re just starting, preparing for competition or just trying to lower your handicap, I specialize in turning technical work into on-course performance.

"Definitely helped out a lot I was a straight up a slice machine and I was able to get em down the fairway today thank you🙏
