Awards
All Conference Golf Honors (CCL), 09/01/24, During my senior golf season I was awarded with All Conference Golf honors after placing in the top 10 individual golfers in the CCL (Chicago Catholic League). This was a major accomplishment for me as I shot a 76 and placed 6th at Cog Hill Golf and Country Club. This was also a big win for our school as I lead the way for our team shooting a total score of 313, landing DePaul in 3rd place among many great golf schools such as Loyola Academy and St. Ignatius.

I think that this represents my flexibility and ability to adapt to different situations. Being a member of this team has also taught me how to work in group situations and be a leader.
