When did you start playing golf? How did you get involved?
I was introduced to golf at a very young age because my parents already loved the sport, but I once I started playing competitively, I began to focus solely on golf.
What do you love most about golf?
The part about golf that I love most is the life skills that it teaches me. I learned to stay calm and problem solve in the face of pressure, and that perseverance and determination helps you achieve your goals.
