Head Golf Professional<br />

What was your motivation to become a <strong>PGA</strong> Professional?<br />

I love the game and enjoy being at a place that most everyone wants<br />

to be.<br />

What is your specialty in the golf business?<br />

Tournaments! We do quite a few Corporate events. I like to say we are<br />

the best in the Midwest!<br />

Please list any accomplishments (Awards, Certifications, and<br />

Tournaments.)<br />

I am on the Board of Directors for the non-profit “Angels Among Us,”<br />

and Class A Pro as of January 2010.<br />

What was your greatest moment in golf?<br />

When I got a hole-in-one on Great White 3 in a Match Play event.<br />

What or who has had the greatest impact on your career?<br />

Our owner Bob Hill. He purchased Tiburon in 2004, the year I<br />

graduated. Had he not bought it, I don’t think I would have stayed in<br />

the business. Awesome to work for!<br />

Besides golf, what else do you enjoy?<br />

Spending time with my family. I have 3 daughters under the age of<br />

four. That’s right – 3 daughters. They keep me busy.


If you could play any golf course in the world, which one would<br />

it be and who would complete your foursome?<br />

Everyone says this, but it would be Pebble Beach. My group would be<br />

John Daly, Tiger Woods and Rickie Fowler. Rickie because I want to<br />

see what he wears.<br />

If you could give lessons to anyone in the world who would it<br />

be and what advice would you give?<br />

Charles Barkley. I couldn’t do anything that could possibly hurt. No<br />

pressure!<br />

What is your favorite golf instruction tip?<br />

Slow down! Quick swings are very common.
