Before I graduated as an architect in 1980, I joined Felipe Schjetnan Dantán architecture workshop and started to work on golf course design. We had Joe S. Finger as an associate of the firm, so they both were my first golf design mentors. Over more than 10 years, I learned to love golf and golf course design."
