Passionate about outdoor living when not focusing on my career path. I spend much of my free time with my family and girlfriend traveling around the state of Minnesota. My father and I have been avid hunters throughout my life and it is still a passion we share as we both continue to grow older. When I am not with my family or out in the woods hunting I can be found out on the golf course, on the mats coaching high school wrestling, or watching my favorite minnesota sports teams drive a knife through my heart over and over again.
