Operations Interns

Camryn Eddy


Hi! I’m Camryn and I’m from Cincinnati, Ohio. I am going to be a senior at the University of Kentucky this fall and I’m majoring in Sports Communication. Last summer, I worked with the Greater Cincinnati Golf Association as a PJ Boatwright intern. Growing up and throughout high school, I played golf and basketball and I’m a huge Reds, Bengals, and Kentucky Wildcats fan. In my free time, I love going to local coffee shops, traveling, and shopping. Golf has always been a passion of mine and I can’t wait to work with the STPGA this summer to grow the game and continue to learn.

Lauren Hall


Hey everyone! My name is Lauren Hall and I’m from Houston, Texas. I’m currently a senior attending Texas A&M where I am majoring in Sport Management. GIG EM’!

During my time in college, I’ve been fortunate enough to work in a variety of opportunities in the sport industry that have allowed me to gain amazing experiences along the way. In my free time, I love playing/coaching softball and hanging out with my friends and family! I’m very grateful I get to work with the STPGA as a Tournament Operations Intern this summer and looking forward to growing my knowledge and experience in the golf industry. I have high hopes of growing the game of golf and contributing everything I have to the STPGA!

Peyton Hanna


Hey, My name's Peyton Hanna I’m from Houston Texas. I’m currently an undergraduate at Texas Tech Business college of Rawls and plan to graduate in May 2024. In my spare time I participate on the Men's Lacrosse and Ultimate Frisbee club teams at Tech and work out with my little brother. This summer I’m excited to grow my knowledge of the sport. As well as help exceed the goals that the STPGA strives to accomplish day in and out. I'm grateful for this opportunity the STPGA has offered me. Wreck’Em!

Isabela Miravite


Hi I'm Bela. Born and raised in the Philippines, I grew up with the game of golf. I have been playing the game since 2008, played D1 collegiate golf, and am now learning behind the ropes with the Southern Texas PGA section. I am currently a graduate student from North Carolina A&T State University and am a graduate assistant for the men's and women's golf team. I am excited to learn and have fun at STPGA this summer.

Manuel Silva


Hi, My name is Manuel Silva and I am from Pueblo, Colorado. I am a Marine Corps and combat wounded veteran. I am in The PGM program at Sam Houston State University. Golf saved my life after the war in Iraq, and during the rehabilitation time after my injuries, I found comfort at the golf course and I want to help others find that same peace. I have three children, ages 9,12, and 14. They are my why, and the reason I want to be successful in life. My main goal is to be a positive role model for them as well as other people who want to take charge of their life by never giving up on your dreams. My main motto in life is "ONLY GOOD DAYS." I believe we have the choice to never have a bad day, it's my mindset and I hope to pass that along to everyone I come in contact with. Outside of golf my main interest is baseball, going to concerts, and riding BMX bikes with my friends and family. 

Communications Interns

Urvi Dalal


Hey everyone! My name is Urvi Dalal and I am from Burleson, Texas. I recently graduated from Texas State University with a degree in public relations and I am currently at Texas Tech University completing a masters degree in mass communication. A fun fact about me is that I am a Dallas Cowboys fan and I can sew! I’m extremely excited to learn more about golf and work with STPGA this Summer.

Samantha Sardina



Hi y’all! My name is Samantha and I’m from the Woodlands, Texas. I am majoring in Business at the University of Michigan Ross School of Business, and double minoring in Spanish and Sustainability. Some fun facts about me are that I can sing the alphabet backwards and I speak three languages. I am super excited to join the STPGA team this summer and get to continue growing my digital media and communication skills (and golf skills)!
