I started playing golf in the summer of 2020, following my last year of hockey due to the pandemic. At first, I was playing for fun with friends, 18 holes or the driving range everyday. I picked up the game really fast, beating all my friends every time we went out, and setting a new best score everyday. 

It wasn't until the summer of 2021 where I decided that I wanted to take the game a step further. I saw potential in my game and believed if I just played everyday more than anybody else with the same vision as me, I would be able to perform in tournaments and win. So, that's what I did, 2 rounds a day plus time spent on the range and practice greens, every single day of the summer. I got myself down to a single handicap after my second summer, but I needed something to help me improve in the off-season. I got a coach for the 6-month break in the cold, that way I could get coaching every week and use an indoor facility as much as I wanted. 

Summer of 2022 came along and I got a new set of irons and woods, and was shooting high 70's consistently. But I got injured early in the season which put me out for the rest of the season and half of the off-season. I started working more on my body and started getting help from a sports psychologist. I really found my love and passion for the sport after this experience. I came back strong in the summer of 2023. That summer I played in over 10 events including multiple Golf Ontario Provincial Championships and CJGA Majors maintaining a 76 average tournament score. But I knew I could do better.

During the off-season of 2023, I started working with golf coach, Mitch Sutton. We worked on my swing every week indoors. I felt more of a change going into the summer of 2024 than I ever have in previous years. My first tournament to start off the 2024 season I shot 72-72, followed by qualifying for the Ontario Men's Am, 21st at the Ontario Juniors (jumping 30 spots from the previous year) and 2nd at the Ontario Summer Games, shooting -2 through 3 rounds. I continued working on my game whenever there was sun in the sky and for a moment of the summer, I was on fire, shooting multiple rounds in the mid 60's in regional events. I believe this past summer ended on a high note and I'm excited for the off-season ahead. I'm going to continue the grind with my coach and make sure the 2025 season really shows who I am and how far I have come.

I'm a 17-year old all around athlete that specializes in golf. I dream of playing college golf in the states at the NCAA D1 level, then the PGA tour after school. I spent 9-years of my life playing competitive hockey before deciding to take up golf. During those years playing hockey I took up other sports such as baseball and soccer in the summer. I love to compete and can take friendly competitions very seriously because I don't like to lose. I don't spend too much time hanging out with friends unless we're golfing.

I think coaches should consider me because my game has developed so quickly and it's only going to get better. I only started golfing at 14-years old and I made the decision that I wanted to play professional golf soon after. I knew it would be tough because everyone else had several years on me, but after 3-years of constant practice I've got myself to the national level of competition, and a + handicap. That proves the obvious amount of work ethic I have and my desire to get better, and succeed in whatever I put my mind to. I've gone through the injury phase and came back strong competing with the best in the province, proving my perseverance and never give up mentality towards the game when odds are not in my favor. 

Full tournament schedule will be posted in the new year.
