At a young age I had always known I wanted to follow in my father’s footsteps and pursue a career in the golf industry and become a PGA professional. Like many in the industry I began my golf career in high school where I worked in outside services learning customer service and cart operations. Upon graduating high school, I enrolled at Sam Houston State in the PGA Golf Management program where I obtained my Business degree and Class A PGA membership. During my time at Sam Houston, I served as Class Representative (2017-2018), Secretary (2018-2019), and President (2019-2020) of the PGA Golf Management program. While I was in college, I had the opportunity to intern at various types of facilities during the summertime that helped broaden my experience in the golf industry. My freshman year I interned at Advance Golf Partners at their Dallas properties (Sky Creek Ranch Golf Club, Westridge Golf Club, and Bridlewood Golf Club) where I primarily focused on membership sales and programming. My sophomore year I interned at The Golf Club at Blackrock a Top 100 ranked facility in Coeur d’Alene Idaho. My junior year and senior year of college I helped with the acquisition and onboarding with our teams at Trophy Club of Apalachee and Hamilton Mill Country Club.
Upon graduation from Sam Houston State, I started my career as the Head Golf Professional at Hamilton Mill Country Club in 2020. After 2 years as Head Golf Professional, I was promoted to General Manager of Hamilton Mill Country Club overseeing food and beverage, golf operations, and golf course maintenance.
