I began to play golf at age 10 and played high school golf from grades 8-12. I grew up in Greenville, South Carolina, spent time in Wichita, Kansas, and now living in Arizona, for my 6th year. I attended college and played college golf at Grand Canyon University in Phoenix, Arizona where I got my Bachelor's in Sociology. As my aspirations were for playing upon graduation, I found my true passion was teaching the game of golf and being around others who had that same passion for the game that I do.
