Brian first learned about The First Tee of South Puget Sound while working at Chambers Bay in 2012. He was intrigued by the setup of pool noodles and hula hoops on the driving range, as well as the laughter and excitement being experienced by the participants. Upon chatting with Ryan, Executive Director, he knew he needed to become more involved with the organization. Brian became the first coach hired by the chapter, and began coaching the following week. Brian is recognized by First Tee National, as The First Tee Coach, after completion of Level I, II, and III training. Brian was hired as Program Coordinator in 2016, and is now the Program Director of The First Tee of South Puget Sound.

Allie first joined The First Tee of South Puget Sound as the Marketing & Communications Intern during the summer of 2013. Following her internship with The First Tee, Allie went on to intern with the USGA and began a career in golf marketing. In 2018 Allie joined the chapter again as the Marketing & Communications Director and has loved every minute of returning to the organization that got her started with a career in golf.

Allie comes from a family of golfers, having played herself since age six, and loves being on the golf course. If you can’t find her on the golf course you can find her playing with her Golden Retriever, Arnold, named after the one and only, Mr. Arnold Palmer.
