Secretary: Micaela Uriegas
Hi everyone! My name is Micaela Uriegas, I’ve been a member in the LPGA Ams Austin Chapter for 2 and a half years now! (WOW! Time flies!!?) A little bit about me: by day, I work for the TX Department of State Health Services in Public Health Emergency Preparedness, but after work you can find me hitting the gym, going on a walk through a park with my dog, or cooking a nice meal to share with family and friends. I’ve been playing golf for 12 years now, I even played in college at a D3 school in the suburbs of Philadelphia! However, I am a Texas girl born and raised in South Texas! I'm looking forward to stepping into my new role in our Chapter as a Secretary, but if you know me, you know I run the Monday League at Clay/Kizer! I hope to see everyone out on the course soon, and I can't wait to see what we have in store for y'all! If you ever need anything, please don't hesitate to reach out and I'm happy to help out or connect you to someone who can :)
