Biography

“My time at Clarkson as a member and captain of the golf team has truly been memorable from start to finish. The people I met and the obstacles faced individually and as a team truly molded me into the person I am today. The opportunity to represent Clarkson as an athlete each weekend in the fall and spring is something I will always cherish, and I hope my teammates continue to leave their own mark on the program as it grows.”
