What makes you passionate about what you do?
“Having the opportunity to help superintendents bring out the best in their golf course.”
What does ATS offer that your competitors don't?
“ATS is customer-focused. The reps at ATS understand better then anyone that each golf course is examined on an individual basis, and diagnosed accordingly.”
Describe [a] customer problem(s) you are proud of solving:
“One of my customers had significant nematode damage, along with significant bacterial infections. Because chemical options are limited, we are learning how to manage and come up with solutions to these issues with limits.”
What's your best turf tip?
“Chemicals are a nice tool, but not always the answer. Implementing fundamental cultural practices and/or maintaining proper fertility levels can help just as effectively.”
