My family discovered disc golf over 25 years ago at an Indiana state park. At first, I’d often end up tiring of throwing our beach Frisbees, preferring to climb trees and explore with my little sister, but eventually we discovered real discs and tournaments and were hooked. Disc golf has been a constant rhythm in my life since, no matter where I’ve been located.
I became PDGA #24356 in 2004 to play women nationals as a junior, utilizing my first Supersoft Omega as my putter. I won Am worlds in 2012 and have played pro since, joining Team Millennium in 2016. I of course still throw Omegas (they are the best putter out there!) and especially really on Millennium for a range of finesse drivers (in Millennium plastic which is the best) for my strong woods game.
After moving a lot for school and academia, last year I moved to Maryland (near DC) where I hope to stay settled. I’m a PhD atmospheric scientist testing and developing numerical weather prediction models at NASA Goddard. That means most of my day involves writing code, so I rely on disc golf to get outside and have opportunities to delight in cool cloud formations!
