    In this episode of Cupcakes with Kupcho, Jen and Lesley head to PING headquarters to sit down with Rose Fielder, Senior Manager of Engineering Operations, for a conversation at the intersection of golf, innovation, and representation in STEM.
    Rose shares her journey from collegiate golfer to mechanical engineer and leader at PING, reflecting on mentorship, navigating a male-dominated field, and why representation matters for the next generation of athletes and engineers. Together, they explore how golf equipment has evolved, what fans rarely see behind the scenes, and how design decisions directly support elite performance.
    Jen also brings Lesley inside PING’s iconic gold putter vault—home to gold-plated replicas of every PING player’s winning putter—revisiting some of her own victories in a moment you can see on YouTube.
