Was born in Columbia, Maryland, and lived in Cincinnati, Ohio, before moving to California.

Learned how to play golf by reading Golf Digest magazines as a kid.

Fond golf memory is playing golf with his dad on cold winter days in Cincinnati.

If not a professional golfer, would be an entrepreneur.

Biggest thrill outside golf was spending time at an orphanage in Mexico.

Would like to start a charity to help youth fulfill their greatest potential.
