I was born in Grande Prairie Alberta, and lived most of my childhood in a small northern town called Fairview, where I grew up playing Golf on a 9 hole course until the sun went down every summer.
I moved to a Red Deer when I was 11, and began golfing at the Red Deer Golf and Country Club.
When I was 15, I began working in the backshop there, and later transitioned to doing the same thing at the Quarry when I moved to Edmonton.
After finishing a degree in Personal Training, I began working at the Derrick in 2024, and began my Golf career as a Pro there.
