About Me

WILLEM M. JARON
I am a Junior in high school, 3-year Varsity Golf Letterman, 4.25 GPA student, I intend to play college golf at a highly selective university.   For me, golf is more than a game. Golf encompasses and integrates with my life. From the mechanics of a swing, to course designs, I'm fascinated by turning ideas into reality. 
I can see myself playing on tour just as much as I can see myself, designing, engineering and building courses. To attain my goals of being the best player I can be, I spend hours practicing, training, evaluating my swing, and playing in tournaments.
I attend the Engineering Academy at Naples High School where I have earned college credits & 3-D modeling certification in Autodesk Revit and Inventor. I have worked at my local golf club (Windstar on Naples Bay) since the day I turned 16.  This summer I plan to intern with a golf course landscape architect/engineer. While playing in as many tournaments as possible. My parents have taught me that combining your passion/hobby with your career leads to success and life long happiness.I realize that there are many students with the same goals and skills, the one thing that uniquely sets me apart from others is that I have grown up in a town with year round golf and many golf pros. I have been fortunate to be able to volunteer at many of the PGA Tour golf events and talk with people living my dream. They have taught me that success more than just technical skills and winning. They have taught me that honesty and leadership is what makes you rise to another level.

Golfing: I enjoy being outside, learning about the game, and overcoming the challenges of the course.  As someone that is very interested in the design and engineering of the courses, I get lost in the unique experience of each. To me, the impossibility of mastering the game keeps me excited to become the best player I can be. 
Share a time when you faced a challenge, obstacle, or failure. How did it affect you, and what did you learn from the experience? Meat! My mother is a vegetarian, I am not. While going through a tremendous growth spurt over the past two years, cooking has become one of my hobbies.  I like learning new recipes to cook steak and chicken! Occasionally, I cook for the whole

Since 4th Grade: Participant in the First Tee Program

The First Tee Program: Started the program in 4th Grade, I have learned many things.I use the  STAR acronym often:  
S is Situation
T is Task
A is Action 
R is Result
I have used STAR many times in school, mostly while taking tests. STAR was useful recently, during a Chemistry test I STOPped and thought/THINK about the question, ANTICIPATED the answer. RESPONDED to the context clues to determine the answer of the question which helped me get an A!Because of First Tee program,  I have had golf as a constant in my life. Each year I have met many people in the local golf community and learned about the Nine Core Values. These values have allowed me to continue to grow my golf game and me as an individual. If you ask my mom, I dress better than any of my friends. By wearing golf outfits most of the time, she loves that I wear a collared shirt and tuck it in with a belt!   

What is your personal mantra and explain why?
There are three that I use often:
“Treat people the way you want to be treated” 
Two my mother always says:
“Keep it moving”
Be early to everything:  “Winners are never late”
Basically meaning, try your best to always keep going even if you fail. Always be respectful of other people's time. Mostly,  you should try your best to be early to everything you do. This allows you to be able to set yourself up for success without rushing.
