Personal

Earliest golf memory: "When I was around 5 years old at the Travelers Championship, Billy Andrade was on his way to the tee and my dad, my brother and I had stopped for a snack at a concession stand. Billy sat down right next to us at the picnic table and started eating my animal crackers. It was crazy at the time to be eating animal crackers with a pro golfer."

Father won a member-guest in New Haven, Connecticut when he was young and used the pro shop credit to buy him his first set of clubs. In 2018, he won his first professional event (Connecticut Open) at the same course (New Haven Country Club) that got him started in golf.

Four-time All-American with 11 collegiate wins; won the 2017 team national championship and the 2018 individual national champion. His brother (Michael) defended his individual national championship in 2019.

Was named the 2018 Jack Nicklaus Award winner as the top collegiate player in Division II at Florida Southern.
