Personal Statement
Update 5/2013 - I earned an exemption on the SYMETRA Tour's Credit Union Classic in Syracuse, NY July 22 - 28th, by winning a qualifier over a field of 97 players.
I have a love for life and a passion to play golf. Having already won 50 tournaments through my Junior year, I’m determined to continue my commitment to hard work in helping my college team win a conference championship. Ultimately, I hope to have continued success on the LPGA Tour, followed by a career in golf/sports management.
Being a member of a college golf team and earning a college degree is very important to me. No only will the college experience offer me growth as an individual, it will help me fulfill my future aspirations in a field where I can help others build foundations for their dreams. Knowing what the game has given me throughout my childhood, my intentions after playing competitively is to have a career that will allow me to give back to the game that has given me so much.
