"Who introduced me to the sport of Disc Golf?
I started playing when my friends took me to the local course. Somehow I found out about leagues which turned into playing tournaments and the rest is history."
"What is your biggest Disc Golf accomplishment? Your most proud moment in the sport?
I have been the tournament director for nearly 20 A and B-tier tournaments and am looking forward to being the assistant tournament director for the 2026 Junior World Championships in Pittsburgh."
"Whats your favorite disc color to throw?
Pink"
"What weight drivers do you like to throw?
175g"
"What one disc do you throw the farthest? Pure distance
Destroyer"
"What do you putt with?
BT Soft Swan 2. My main putter has been my go-to putter for the last 12 years. If I ever lose it I will be devastated."
"What course did you fall in love with Disc Golf on?
Schenley Park in Pittsburgh"
"Whats the Tournament you circle on the calendar 1st as a cant miss?
Can-Am Cup. A team match play tournament in New York. I love the casual nature of an unsanctioned event with everyone camping on site."
"In one sentence or less, tell us one interesting thing about you not disc golf related?
I am a huge board game nerd."
"Tell us about your Tournament Day routine and if you carry any lucky charms?
I like to start to get ready about a half hour before the round by swinging a baseball bat. Swinging lefty mimics the backhand motion well and feels like it loosens me up. Right before the round I practice putt and I always have to make sure that I make the last two putts before two minutes is called."
"When you play a new course for a tournament what is your plan of action. Play it blind, walk some holes, get the details from a card mate? Tell us how you attack a new course.
I like to play new courses blind. Going into a tournament without any expectations helps take off some of the edge and stress and lets me just see the lines and try to hit them without overthinking a shot."
