I finished 13th of 332 high school golfers from all over the USA in the 2021 National High School Invitational in Pinehurst (4th place among my class of 2023).
I have been playing tournament golf since age 6, and have racked up more than 50 victories. I won the 2013 Doral-Publix, the 2012, 2013, and 2017 US Kids Holiday Classic, and the 2017 US Kids Florida State Championship. I was the 2016 and 2017 SFPGA Player of the Year. My biggest margin of victory was an 11-stroke victory in the 13-18 division in the first event of the 2020 SFPGA Championship Tour.
My game is well-rounded, featuring power and finesse. My driver swing speed is 110 mph, and I hit my 2-iron stinger 235 yards - dead straight. I'm a great bunker player, and my short game and putting allow me to save par from almost anywhere.
