Non-Angling Hero:  Dad- He taught me that living life is truly a blessing, and that living life sometimes throws you curve balls.  It’s how you handle those curve balls that define you as a person.  Thanks Dad!

When Not Fishing:  I spend my time working the roads and cities of the Great State of Kansas for the Kansas Highway Patrol.  I enjoy being a State Trooper; it is one of the most rewarding jobs I can think of.  The Kansas Highway Patrol is one of the finest organizations in the Nation, and one of the best dressed.  I consider it a privilege to be a Kansas State Trooper.    

When not working as a Trooper I am busy with C.A.S.T. as an Event Coordinator helping with events across the United States.  Or I’m busy at home with our new youth bass club, KHP REEL DEAL.
