Meet Ian – Head Golf Professional

Born in Scarborough, Ontario, Ian moved to Victoria, BC at a young age and has proudly called it home ever since. It was here that he planted his roots, both personally and professionally.

Ian began his golf career in 2000 at Uplands Golf Club and quickly developed a passion for the game. He picked up golf at 17 and, just five years later, turned professional at 22. Now a Class “A” Head Professional with the PGA of Canada, Ian brings dedication, experience, and a love for the sport to everything he does.

His career low round? An impressive 63.

Outside of work, Ian is a proud father to a son and daughter—and he hopes they’ll one day join him in the golf industry and work at the club alongside him.
