Twiggs was born in Los Angeles and grew up in southern California. He attended San Diego State University where he was a member of the golf team, a first team All-American his senior year. He turned professional in 1984.[1]

Twiggs played full-time on the PGA Tour from 1984 until 1992, and had one official win. After 1992, he split his playing time between the PGA Tour and the Nationwide Tour; the majority of his time in the late 1990s was spent on the Nationwide Tour.[2] His best finish in a major was T-22 at the 1993 PGA Championship.[3]

In 1992, Twiggs and his wife decided to move from southern California to Greensboro, North Carolina, where they live today with their two daughters.[2]
