My golfing career started aged 9 and I quickly became hooked - representing the Dorset U18 team before my 14th birthday, then progressing through all the county levels, culminating in several seasons as a 1st team regular before turning professional following the completion of my A-Levels.
I undertook the rigorous and thorough 3 year PGA training programme at a golf club just over the Hampshire border and was awarded one of the prestigious PGA National Assistant’s Scholarships for outstanding results in the exams. This success provided me with the springboard to become one of the youngest Head Professionals in the country. I took over this role at Came Down Golf Club aged just 25, a position I still occupy some 27 years later!
I thoroughly enjoy my job and the variety it provides but get the most satisfaction from helping people improve their golf and over the years have taught thousands of pupils from complete beginners to county champions and fellow professionals.
