GOLF
-are you self-taught?
I am self-taught. I used to live in a neighborhood that had its own basketball court, and tennis court along with a golf course. I used to sneak down to play golf after hours, because I thought it was my playground. I mean I had the tennis court and basketball court to play whenever I wanted, so why not the golf course? I was a kid.
-what is your best achievement, thus far?
I have made a hole-in-one! I think I have made two hole-in-ones, but my memory is foggy. I can shoot a par 72, which puts me in good company based on my research. As an adult, I notice that a lot of professional cuts happen around par 72, so I might even become a professional.
-what are your goals as a golfer?
My goal is to become a professional golfer. I want to make golf cuts and get better as a golfer. Sure, the winnings are nice, but I enjoy golf as a personal development game where I compete with myself. I want to earn sponsors, which I am working on now. I am searching for golf sponsors in the areas of shoes, clothes, hats, equipment, food/beverage, nutritional supplements, gym, hotel/travel, approximately 20 sponsorship categories.

MUSIC
-are you self-taught?
Yes. I learned to play the drums and saxophone in school when I was younger. As an adult, I am more of a producer in music bringing good sounding parts together in forming music. I also learned to sing at SBCC, but I am still working on it.
-what is your best achievement, thus far?
My first music title, ‘Jonata’ has been a Finalist three (3) times, Official Selection twice (2), and Honorable Mention once (1) at International Film Festivals.
-what are your goals as a musician?
My present goal is to keep writing as I am working on an album, finish/produce the album, release the album, publicize the album, and then go on tour. Hopefully, venues play my music and I reap the benefits from music royalties. Therefore, I have to create music that sounds good, and you can dance to, as well as, play over/over again.
