Personal Statement
I started playing golf at age 8 and then competitively at age 9. I play year round and enter as many tournaments as I can because I love golf and competing. I am a member at Ancala CC in Scottsdale, AZ and Forrest Highlands in Flagstaff, AZ and practice 5-6 days a week. I also work out 2-5 days a week at MotionLab in Scottsdale which is dedicated personal training for competitive golfers. I played middle school golf and now play high school varsity golf at Desert Mountain Golf in Scottsdale. However, most of my golf happens on junior tours such as the JGAA, HJGT, AJGA, U.S. Kids, and recently USGA events like the U.S. Open Qualifier, U.S. Amateur and Mid Amateur Qualifiers. Below I have listed some of my 2022 Highlights as well as my upcoming tournament schedule.
