I’m the Assistant Superintendent at the Vail Golf Club. This is my personal blog to keep a running journal of my work in the golf course industry. I am a graduate of The Ohio State University with an Associate of Science degree in 2000. I have extensive experience in managing a golf course in the Rocky Mountains, project management, chemical, fertilizer and labor budgets. I have a complete understanding of irrigation controls and water management. I make well thought out and informed decisions that help make the golf course the best that it can be.

Bent Tree Golf Club

1997 to 1999 Maintenance staff
Bent Tree Golf Club
Sunbury, OH
18 hole Public resort course

I began my career as a maintenance worker at Bent Tree Golf Club in Sunbury, Ohio.  After two seasons there I decided to make a career in business.  I really enjoyed the work, being outside on the course.
My first two years on the golf course I was introduced to many different jobs.  I did everything from string trimming and filling divots to fertilizer applications. I was involved in many irrigation repairs and drainage projects. Here I learned the importance of the attention to detail and how it can be the difference between a course being ok and great and how it can also impact a golfers round.
