I have been a member of the Philadelphia Country Club for 19 years, where my love for golf first began. I started playing the game there as a young kid, participating in junior golf tournaments, which really shaped my understanding of the sport. Those early experiences taught me the importance of patience, discipline, and proper etiquette-values that have stayed with me in many aspects of my life today. The precision and focus required in golf have also translated into how I approach challenges and interactions outside of the game. 

Playing lacrosse from an early age has had a huge impact on my development as a team player. Lacrosse is a fast-paced , highly strategic sport that emphasizes communication, cooperation, and trust among teammates. Growing up in that environment has taught me how to understand each players role, and prioritize the success of the team over individual performance. It has also honed my ability to stay composed under pressure, think quickly, and adapt to changing situations, which are all key traits for working well in any team setting.

Fishing has been a great hobby for me, offering both relaxation and a sense of adventure. It allows me to connect with nature, unwind from daily stresses, and enjoy the quiet moments of solitude or camaraderie with others. Each trip feels like a new challenge requiring patience and focus while also providing a deep sense of satisfaction when the catch is successful. It's not always about the fish, but the peacefulness and reflection that come with it.
