Having experienced two chosen careers; Elementary Education and Golf.  Retiring after 30+ years as a classroom teacher and Principal, I am now full time golf.

My education career started in Arizona as well as my working at Pro Shops.  Both continued with my return to my home state of Oklahoma. I was associated with Shangri-La Resort Pro Shop in various positions from starter to Pro Shop Clerk to tournament manager for several years.

A position opened at The Coves Golf Club in 1998 and I continue to enjoy my association with the members and the Ladies and Men's Golf Associations.

Having attended classes and seminars to provide instruction, I enjoy working with individuals on the basic fundamentals of grip, stance, posture and alignment.

We look forward to providing you with the best of service and well managed tournaments.

Good Golfing and Good Health
