Love graduated from the University of North Carolina Wilmington in 2025 with a Bachelor’s Degree in Marketing and Professional Sales. Originally from Mooresville, North Carolina, Jack grew up playing golf in and around the Charlotte area, picking up the game at just 8 years old. Many of those early summers were spent participating in First Tee programs, which eventually inspired him to give back by later working with First Tee in Shallotte, NC during a summer in college. That experience led to him joining the First Tee – Greater Wilmington team full time. With a passion for the outdoors, Jack enjoys anything that gets him outside—whether it’s playing golf, spending time on the water, or exploring with a camera in hand. He loves sharing the game of golf with others and creating opportunities for people to discover just how fun and rewarding it can be!
