Colonial Career Links Co. connects graduating Division I golfers with employers. We help those employers understand what it takes to compete at that level and what college golfers bring to their teams.

College golf develops professional competencies that cannot be replicated in a university classroom.

Founder · My Vision
Experience That Doesn't Fit A Standard Résumé

Of course, college golfers can't look like every student on a résumé.

We compete in our own category.

NARPS (non-athletic regular people) took internships and summer jobs. We trained, traveled, and competed while carrying the full course load of a regular student, all while balancing collegiate golf at the highest level. There are underlying qualities that the average student will never experience. You have them, and employers value them and are looking for them.

A standard LinkedIn profile has no way of demonstrating these attributes.
So I built one that does.

Why we will succeed in the workplace

01
Discipline
Show up for yourself, your teammates, and the commitments you signed up for.
02
Punctuality & Accountability
Chronically on time, coachable, and answerable to coaches and teammates.
03
Teamwork
Your own score. Our team’s results.
04
Managing Responsibilities
Carry a full course load while meeting the demands of practice, tournaments, and travel.
05
Analytical Thinking
Find the weakness. Measure it. Fix it.
06
Planning & Execution
Set goals, build the week, and adjust on the fly.
07
Communication & Relationship Building
New courses, schools, and tournaments mean meeting new people and building relationships with leaders in golf.
08
Composure Under Pressure
Compete under constraints, from tight turnarounds to travel delays and changing conditions.

Managing your own development as a student-athlete is exactly the kind of work employers want from a teammate.

We assess results, take responsibility, make decisions, and keep improving — every week, for years.

Why Hire A D1 Golfer?

You already know the answer to this.

If you can hold your own in front of your team with an NCAA title on the line, you can definitely hold your own in a boardroom.

Coachable & Accountable

05
Self-Directed
They manage their own training, recovery, and preparation between team practices.
06
Built For A Team
They own their score and know exactly what it means for the team.

About
Recruited myself into two D1 programs without a coach ever watching me swing — just relentless outreach and a good pitch. I love talking to people and building relationships, and I'm looking to bring that same energy into a career in sales.
