Bio
Loves to work out. If he didn't play golf, he would pursue a career in the fitness industry.
Can solve a Rubik's Cube.
Plays a lot of first-person shooter video games, mainly Call of Duty and Apex Legends.
Huge fan of the Los Angeles Lakers (NBA), Los Angeles Angels (MLB), Anaheim Ducks (NHL), and Michigan Wolverines football.
His earliest golf memory is watching Tiger Woods beat Stephen Ames, 9 and 8, at the WGC-Accenture Match Play Championship and having Woods' caddie, Steve Williams, toss him one of the balls from the match. The ball still sits displayed on his desk.
Spent roughly nine months as a security guard at a night club in fall 2021 through spring 2022.
Connected to Costa Mesa United which helps raise money for all youth sports in his hometown.
Both his grandparents owned houses in Palm Springs, California, and he grew up going to the golf course with them; he loved running around the fairways as a little kid, until driving the golf cart became his favorite thing to do.
