Clay was born in Colorado and grew up in the small town of Parachute, Colorado, where he discovered his passion for the Golf Course Industry working summers at the Battlement Mesa Golf Course.

After deciding to attend turf school at Penn State, he embarked on an educational journey that took him to multiple top 100 Clubs. His first career stop kept him close to home as a Crew Foreman at The Golf Club at Redlands Mesa. He left there to travel, taking positions at Augusta National as an intern, back to Colorado (Castle Pines GC) and then to Wyoming (Old Baldy) for Assistant positions, then off to Superintendent positions in New Mexico (Las Campanas), Arizona (Pueblo del Sol), Nebraska( Cross Creek) and back to Colorado (Cornerstone Club), before landing at Kearney Country Club in March of 2020. He grew as a leader and manager at each stop gaining vital experience in different climate types, turf types and while overseeing multiple renovation projects. He has achieved his Class A status with GCSAA and is currently pursuing certification. He is proud to lead the Turf Care team as your Golf Course Superintendent.

He and his wife Lori have four children; Haidyn, Steele, Coy and Marley. He spends his free time with his family on the golf course or out fishing, hiking, camping, hunting or at the various sporting events that his kids are involved in. They are excited to call Nebraska home for many years to come.
