May 15th will mark three years since I began my journey at Tiger Woods’ nonprofit organization, TGR Foundation. In those three years a lot has changed in my personal and professional life. Living in California and working for a professional sports team was once a dream, and although work life looks a little different than I imagined it would, I’m grateful for the experiences, lessons and relationships I've built since I joined Team TGR.
While it's pretty cool to work for one of the world's greatest athletes, the impact the Foundation makes in the lives of students and educators is what I love most. It's been a great honor to tell their stories and shine a light on the great programs and resources we offer, especially as we celebrate 25 years since Tiger launched the Foundation in 1996.
Today in advance of my anniversary date, I'd like to share some of the most significant memories and experiences I've had throughout my career at TGR Foundation, starting with meeting Tiger Woods.
