PROfile

I was born in Calgary and raised in Beaumont, during summers when I was growing up in the town of Beaumont there wasn’t much else to do except play road hockey or go play golf. So I decided to get my first job in the golf industry as a backshop attendant at Eagle rock Golf Course for one summer. 

After a couple summers of working renovations I started working at Northern Bear Golf Club and started to take the game more seriously. After Northern Bear I got a job at Redtail Landing Golf Club as outside service and moved my way into the pro shop that year. I spent the next couple years at RedTail Landing learning how to properly play golf with the current professionals, who helped me achieve my goal of becoming a Golf Proffessional in June of 2022. 

Through the connections I’ve made in the industry I was able to land a job at the Fairmont Jasper Park Lodge. Where I am currently gaining a ton of experience and meeting lots of amazing people.
