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.

Vail Golf Club

2007 - Present Assistant Superintendent
Vail Golf Club
Vail, CO
18 hole municipal golf course

I moved from Piqua, Ohio to Vail, CO in May of 2007 to chase a dream of living in the mountains.  My original goal was two to three years and then move on.  However, after being here for just a few months I realized that I wanted to make the mountains my home for a lot longer.
Vail Golf Club, located at the base of the world renowned ski mountain, has many unique challenges which has made it a very rewarding job.  Being a municipal course we do a high number of rounds, 22,000 to 24,000, in what is only about a six month season or less.  Because of being in Vail, CO we cater to a wide range guests. The local, who plays as many rounds as possible, the guests, who come in several weekends a season, and others from across the country and even the world who may only play here once a year or once in a lifetime.  We pride ourselves on providing the absolute best conditions each and everyday for all of our guests.
