About My Career Path
From Kinsale to Dallas Texas to St Andrews, I’ve spent over a decade competing, learning, and building a serious career in golf. I’m not just in the game - I’m in it with purpose. This page documents what I’m doing on tour, who I’m working with, and how I’m constantly improving.
I’ve represented Ireland, led my university golf team, won on the amateur circuit, caddied on the Challenge Tour and DPWT, and now compete full-time from the UK to the US - primarily on the Tartan Pro Tour in Scotland. My goal is to climb the ranks through smart scheduling, real preparation, and strategic progress.
Career Vision
This isn’t just about making cuts or climbing leaderboards. It’s about long-term success on the course and in how I carry myself through the sport. My business plan is centered around performance, mentorship, and modern development through data and human connection.
I split my year between Ireland, USA and Scotland. I train like a pro and operate like a coach. And I’m building something that supports both paths at once.
Whether I’m competing, coaching, creating tutorials, or helping others through custom built AI-backed feedback systems - everything connects to one goal: Moving forward.

Coaches
I have been primarily self taught in the past 5 years. Personally I feel more value in trusting my own knowledge and opinions on the golf swing. I find it comforting to know my own swing and my specific set of different feels. I work off ball flight and tie the results back to my swing to make connections. No two swings are the same, so I focus on my own movements through feel and getting the most out of my swing. I strategically dive in and out of recording my swing and using video analysis. I also use a custom built AI tool to investigate strategy, swing feels, golf psychology techniques and more, producing one of a kind results and recommendations.
