"Since I started working with Greg, he has helped me transform my game to a new level. Things that I did not think possible were made simple with his instruction and advice. He went above and beyond in many ways, especially with the amount of effort he put in on my behalf during my college search. In addition to golf, he is someone who will always lend a listening ear whenever I need to tell him something that is going on in my life."

“Coach Greg has been the best high school golf coach I could have ever asked for and my teammates would attest to that. He helped me get through rounds when I wasn’t playing well and also challenged me to keep improving when I was playing my best. I thought of Greg not only as a coach but also as a mentor. He gave advice not only on golf, but on life as well. The four years in high school golf, under his wing, could not have been written any other way.”
