San Francisco, Bay Area Native. Started bowling at 8 years old at Serra bowl in Daly City. In 2006 we moved centers to Sea Bowl in Pacifica where my mother is currently the Special Events Coordinator. This is also where my brother Michael became the youngest to bowl a perfect game at the time. Prior to my birth, my father was a pro shop operator at Westlake bowl until the center eventually closed its doors. With the combination of my father's knowledge and mother's resource, my brother and I grew into the bowlers we are today. We grew up bowling on the NCJBT circuit across the bay but after that tournament club ended, we moved on to YBT, currently running strong by founders Mike Hillman and Leanne Hulsenberg. I graduated from SJSU in May 2016 with a BS in Mechanical Engineering. I currently reside in Las Vegas and am now chasing my dreams out on the PBA Tour.
