LEADERSHIP
My stand out leadership moment was becoming the Junior Captain of Bray Golf Club for the year of 2015. This was an amazing achievement for me at the time as playing golf was, and still is, a great passion of mine. In this period, I represented the junior section in Bray Golf Club in many inter-club matches, events, and club meetings. This involved bringing my fellow-juniors thoughts and problems to senior board meetings public speaking etc. Overall it was a huge honor and I hope to follow-up by being Senior Club Captain sometime in the future.
