I have always been a competitive athlete, growing up I tried many sports including Ice Hockey, Soccer and Softball but there was something about Golf that I found beautiful. To me, it was more than a sport, it was a passion. The thrill of draining a putt. The extraordinary feeling when you flush an iron shot. Golf has shaped me into a very honest, caring and diligent person. I have met the most amazing people through golf. Golf has given me lifelong friends which I will cherish forever.

My father also had a strong passion for the game and when my little brother was old enough, got him into the sport as well. Our family vacations turned into tournaments that we traveled around the country for. It is no surprise that golf has been the topic of discussion in our household my entire life. 

I started playing in competitive tournaments at the at the age of seven. With a successful junior golf career, I would go on to play Division 1 Golf for Eastern Kentucky University. Golf has taught me to believe in myself, fight for what I want and be patient for the good things to happen.
