Summary

In 2014 I first started working at Cherry Valley Country Club in Skillman NJ as a dishwasher and eventually found my passion working on the grounds crew. In 2019 I attended Rutgers Professional Golf Turf Management Program in 2019. I became an A.I.T at Due Process Golf Club in Colts Neck New Jersey where i learned a whole different aspect of the golf course industry coming from a grounds crew. I am a very motivated individual that is always eager for a new challenge. In 2023 at Metedeconk National Golf Club we hosted the Korn Ferry Tour.
