I began playing golf at 9 years old and started playing competitively in 2018. Practicing 2-5 hours per day, golf brings me joy and is something I look forward to everyday. Over time, my golf game and tournament scoring average has improved drastically. Due to my growth spurts, my scores were inconsistent from low 70’s to high 70’s. By gaining more experience through future tournaments and high school varsity golf, my plan is to score low 70’s consistently in my sophomore year. I believe that playing college golf while obtaining an exceptional education will put me on a great pathway to success. My goal is to be a leader and a key contributor to the golf team that I will be fortunate to play for, as I aspire to represent the University the best way I can through integrity, sportsmanship, and passion during my time at the University and post college life.
