I was born in Lethbridge AB but spent the majority of my younger years in Parksville BC. While growing up in Parksville, I was extremely fortunate to get my first job in the golf industry at Fairwinds G&CC at the age of 12. A few years later I moved over to Morningstar GC and truly fell in love with the game. In 2003 , after returning to Southern Alberta, I began working at Land-o-Lakes GC and began the PGM Program at Lethbridge College. In 2007, I left the golf industry to pursue some opportunities in my personal life. After many years away from the industry, I was blessed with the opportunity to join the team at Picture Butte Golf Club . I couldn’t be more excited.
