HASTINGS-ON-HUDSON, N.Y. (Feb. 26, 2015) – The Saint Andrew’s Golf Club has announced that Tyler Jaramillo is joining its staff as a PGA Assistant Golf Professional effective with the 2015 season.
Born and raised in Albuquerque, N.M., Jaramillo’s responsibilities will focus on teaching and operations at the new Apple Tree Learning Center that opens at the club in May.
Jaramillo joins Saint Andrew’s with many years of experience at private clubs, most recently at The Seawane Club on Long Island. Prior to Seawane, Jaramillo was an assistant golf professional at Tamarack Country Club, Ardsley Country Club, and Fenway Golf Club, all in the Met Area. He has been a PGA of America Class A member since 2008 and is FlightScope Certified, as well as a TPI Level 2 Certified Coach and a US Kids Certified Instructor.
Additionally, Jaramillo is the owner/director and co-founder of Golf In Schools in Seattle, Wash., where he works with 25 elementary schools and more than 150 children to grow the game of golf.
Jaramillo will report to St. Andrew’s Head Golf Professional Greg Bisconti, joining PGA Director of Golf, Charlie Hicks and PGA Assistant Golf Professional Ambry Bishop to round out the professional staff. His focus will be teaching, both in the center and on-course with members.
A quality player, Jaramillo qualified for the PGA National Assistant’s Championship last year, as well as notching a win on the Met PGA Assistant’s tour at Patriot Hills. He also serves on the Met PGA Assistants Board as well as the Met PGA Tournament Committee.
A graduate of New Mexico State University with a bachelor’s degree in Business Administration, Jaramillo grew up playing most sports until he concentrated on golf starting at age 15. When not on the links, he is an avid snowboarder.
As the oldest golf club in the United States (established in 1888) and a founding member of the United States Golf Association, The Saint Andrew’s Golf Club is rich in history and tradition.
Members of The Saint Andrew’s Golf Club are cognizant of their stewardship of the club’s place in golf history, and the significant role that Saint Andrew’s has played in fostering the birth and growth of golf in the United States. The remarkable 1897 clubhouse reflects the membership’s dedication to the preservation of that history, filling it with priceless memorabilia.
