Biography

Owner and operator of Disc Golf Vermont, a full service disc golf company that runs 15-20 tournaments a year, several leagues, kids summer camps and after school programs and much,much more! Being introduced to Disc Golf in 2003, I never looked back and have played hundreds of tournaments and courses over the past 20 years. Sports were always an integral part of my  childhood, playing basketball,baseball,soccer,mtn biking and skiing my entire life. As I entered my 20’s I was fortunate to find Disc Golf and spent the first few years playing in Oregon and Colorado. In 2007 I moved home to Vermont and that is where I started to get involved as a Tournament Director,Ambassador,Promoter and Volunteer of the sport. To be able to do what I love is a dream come true and I feel very fortunate to be surrounded by such a great community of disc golfers here in Vermont and beyond.
Education: Bachelors in Anthropology – University of Vermont 1998
Goal: To share my love of disc golf throughout the Northeast by designing safe,fun,challenging and creative disc golf courses for players of all abilities.
