Disc Golf Career

Amateur
Started Disc Golf in 2019

How did you discover Disc Golf?

When you go to at Humboldt State and discover the Redwood Curtain DGC; there are no words to describe your appreciation for the beauty of the sport.

What is your proudest Disc Golf moment?

Every time I finish my round, that immediate thought of: "Wow I can't wait to shoot this course again!" I'm proud of the passion I have for the sport to always be wanting to play just one more round. Also, the first time I scored under par at Pier Park in Portland was a huge achievement too:)

What are your practice routines?

Trust your instincts and throw to your strengths. Practice your routines and treat each throw as if it's a tournament stroke. Practice your etiquette on all the good shots and bad. If you practice like you play, the cause of error is left to the course.

What is your go-to tip for beginners?

Throw for the love of the sport. This entails being respectful, self aware, having fun, and open to learn! The course has been an escape from the world for generations. Letting the Originals show you the ropes will help finding your game that much easier.
