Off the Job

Wayne was born and raised in Cottage Grove, Oregon.

On the weekend, Wayne enjoys yard projects, golf, mountain biking and occasionally snowboarding. Wayne has always been an avid Beaver fan but, in a controversial move (according to family and friends), he attended law school in Eugene.

On summer evenings, Wayne can often be found on the golf course. However, he will never have golf bragging rights in his family. Not only did his dad (DeRoss) set a then world-record by playing 365 consecutive holes at 55 under par (in 1961 while attending Seattle University on a golf scholarship), the former plus 2 handicapper has made 24 aces along with 1 double-eagle. While still looking for his first Major, DeRoss’ hole-in-one count now sits 6 ahead of  Tiger Woods and 3 ahead of Arnold Palmer.
