Personal


  • Parents lived on a nine-hole course, which made it conducive for him to take up the game. Dad would pick him up from grade school and they would head straight to the golf course.
  • Bucket list includes visiting all 50 states and traveling the world.
  • Would like to be featured in Entrepreneur Magazine. "It would be awesome to develop and successfully run a small business," he says.
  • Would like to trade places with someone in the military. "Would never be able to keep up but would just like to see how they work day in and day out."
  • Favorite courses are Whispering Pines, TPC Sawgrass and Hickory Hills Golf Club. Favorite college teams are Iowa State and Indiana University and pro teams are the Indianapolis Colts and Indiana Pacers. Peyton Manning, Reggie Miller and Andrew Luck are his favorite athletes.
