Golf has been a central part of my life since I first picked up a club at 13 at Cruden Bay Golf Club in Aberdeenshire. Although I started later than many top juniors, I made up for it with relentless work and a deep love for the game. By 18, I had dropped to a +4 handicap, won national events, and earned a spot on the Scottish Men's Performance Squad, where I was fortunate to be mentored by some of the country’s best coaches. That experience sparked my passion for coaching and player development. I later reached a +6 handicap and competed internationally, all while developing a strong interest in physical performance and earning my personal training certification.
