How long have you been playing disc golf? 

 I started in Feb 2020  

How did you get your start in disc golf? 

I played competitive ultimate for years and when Brodie made the switch I checked out the sport and fell in love  

What do you love most about the sport? 

Competing, seeing my progress, and the community.   

What makes disc golf better than the other sports you have played?

 It’s an individual sport but is so much better with friends. If you get off work early you can get a quick round in by yourself.  

How do you approach a new course? 

Throw a few shots until I execute the play. It’s so much easier to execute in an event if you know you can do it because you’ve done it before.  

What motivates you to continually improve your game? 

I always want to be the best I can be at anything I do.  

What do you do to stay focused playing in tourneys? 

I try to keep it light. I want to be someone people on my card are excited to play with.  

What’s your most memorable win? 

Qualifying for doubles USDGC

Who is your disc golf hero, and how were you influenced be him or her?
