Hello, my name is Mariana Mesones. I was born in New Jersey but raised in Lima, Peru. I have been playing golf since I was 4 years old and have represented the Peruvian national team since I was 12. Throughout my golf career, I have earned nine South American medals and had the opportunity to compete in prestigious events worldwide, including the Pan American Games in Chile and the renowned Junior Open in Scotland. As I prepare to return for my sophomore year at the University of Minnesota, I am proud to hold two program records for shooting career-low scoring rounds.
