Summary

9 years of experience in the realm of college football and pro football that have implemented a strong work ethic, knowledge of the industry, and desire to help others succeed. My first season working in Grand Teton National Park opened my eyes to the beauty of the outdoors and the desire protect and care for these places. Further, working in the park has motivated me to stay connected with the outdoors through work, recreation, and fellowship with others with the same values.
