How long have you been bowling? 

“I have been bowling ever sense I was five.”

What is your favorite thing about bowling?

“My favorite thing about bowling is the community built around it, because there aren’t many community’s out there that are more so friendly and helpful towards people.”

Where do you bowl?

“I currently bowl either in Fulton or the bowling center in Osage Beach, called Bowlmor Lanes ll. It’s a really nice place.”

What has been your biggest accomplishment? 

“Not to many yet, but I would say being able to go to bigger tournaments and earning scholarship money.”

What advice would you give fellow young bowlers ?

“No matter what style you use go for what is right to you, what makes you feel comfortable, and work hard at it.”
