Golfing

Golf has been a huge part of my life for the past 13 years. I started playing in high school, where I fell in love with the sport and its challenges. I was blessed with being able to live on a course in Boulder Creek, California, playing 18 holes was a daily occurence after school. Now, I try to get out on the course multiple times a week, whether it’s practicing my swing or competing with my closest friends. Golf isn’t just a hobby for me; it’s a passion that shapes my daily routine and brings me joy. The thrill of perfecting my game, the relationships you build with fellow golfers, and the tranquility of being on the course all make it an essential part of who I am.

Interests

My interests are diverse and revolve around both sports and personal connections Golf is my greatest passion, but I also love following the NFL, MLB, and NHL, immersing myself in the excitement of each season Spending quality time with family and friends is essential to me, whether it's just hanging out or having a family dinner I’m committed to staying active, often hitting the gym to maintain my fitness Traveling is another significant interest; I love exploring new places and experiencing different cultures, all while making memories with loved ones Together, these interests create a fulfilling and dynamic lifestyle
