What is your involvement in agriculture? “My family and I own and operate a farm with an active beef cow/calf operation. I am also actively breaking and raising horses. I am actively involved in showing cattle, horses and hogs at various county fairs.”

What is your favorite part of being involved in agriculture/living on a farm? “I learn a lot more on the farm than anywhere else, including how to raise and care for various animals. I love the relationships that have been built through the lifestyle.”

What are your future plans? Do they involve agriculture in some way? “I’m not exactly sure what my plans are. I just now they will be built around agriculture.”

Awards: “My show animals have won numerous awards over the years. I won the herdsman award this summer at the Dallas County Fair and Junior Livestock Show.”
