About Me

I am a disciplined and driven student-athlete from Ireland, committed to improving both my golf and myself every day. As the Junior Boys Captain of my golf club for 2026, I lead by example on and off the course, fostering teamwork, accountability, and a competitive spirit among my peers. I balance a rigorous academic schedule with competitive golf, maintaining focus, consistency, and a strong work ethic. While I am proud of my accomplishments to date, I recognize that my best golf is still ahead of me, and I am eager to grow within a competitive collegiate environment. I am highly coachable, competitive, and motivated to contribute positively to a team culture built on accountability, hard work, and shared success.
