Former D1 and D3 tennis player at Ball State University with a 12 UTR.

Whether it’s fixing the little things or building confidence, I’m all about making the game more fun, competitive, and rewarding for every player I work with.

"Hey, Mason's lesson was quite good, I think? He's definitely good at explaining things, and I noticed some useful tips during our time. Though, I still feel there's room for sharpening my technique, but I’m feeling optimistic about the next lesson. Still, it’d be great if some specific areas could be a bit more polished. But hey, I’d mention you should try Mason if you're looking for a steady, no-fuss coach.

With over 25 years of experience in the game, golf has been a lifelong passion that has taken me from junior competitions to D1 collegiate golf and beyond. I played for Oregon State University and did not miss a tournament. Additionally, I have competed at the U.S. Girls Junior Amateurs twice (‘08, ‘09) and the U.S. Women's Amateurs twice (‘12, ‘14). My PR is 64 back in high school. After college, I competed professionally on the Cactus Tour in Arizona, where I secured a tournament win at -11. While in Arizona, I also found joy in teaching, working with kids ages 6 to 12 at the TopGolf Summer Academy, helping them develop strong fundamentals and a love for the game. I also have experience going to Q-School and made it to Stage 2 my first year.
