Originally from Texas, my family moved to Cumming, GA in 2012 when I was in middle school. I was the starting nose guard and center on my football team until my father put a golf club in my hand in the fall of 2013. I was immediately addicted to the game and enjoyed competing against my new friends at Windermere Golf Club.
After moving back to Texas, I played golf for Liberty Hill High School. I played for Liberty Hill for two years before committing to play golf at Blinn College in Brenham, Texas. So far I have completed my first season of college golf. I won my first college tournament by shooting 5 under par 66. Since my first collegiate win, I have continued to play well and carried a scoring average of 73 during the fall semester. Blinn is a two year junior college, which means that I am currently looking for a place to continue my college and academic career.
