I have lived my whole life on Table Rock Lake in Southwest Missouri. I was always outside growing up. Whether it was being on the lake, riding my dirt bike, or just being in the woods. I began hunting quail when I was a kid and slowly evolved from there. I began deer hunting with my Dad and older brother AJ, then started turkey and duck hunting. Hunting has became a very special part of my life.

I am a Firefighter, and also have a degree in Fire Science. I am married to a very patient, beautiful woman, Kiersten. But boy am I blessed that she enjoys the outdoors as much as I do. In fact, the biggest deer on the wall in our house is hers. We have one son, Kale, who is our world. I can only hope that he will share the same love for God's creations as we do. Oh and I better not forget our dogs, who were our first kids. We have Bankston, our dachshund and Bailey, our Brittany Spaniel.

I was raised in a Christian family, but it was until recently that I have fully gave all glory to God. I know that with Him, all things are possible. I have been blessed more than what I could ever imagine in my life. The opportunities I've been given, the career path that I was placed here to do, the family that surrounds me, all of which I will never take for granted.

Becoming a part of The Huntin' Grounds is another one of those blessings. Even being a part of the team, every week I am just waiting for the new episode to come out. I am very excited to see where this new chapter in my life's book takes me. And thank you to everyone who is reading this, for choosing to support us.

"Greater love has no one than this, that someone lay down his life for his friends." John 15:13
