I was born and raised in northeast Pennsylvania, and currently live in the hill country of Texas.  I consider myself a western hunter at heart, enjoying glassing vast landscapes and the thrill of the stalk.  My motivations as an outdoorsman are rooted in the sustenance and physical aspects.  In fact, my largest driving factor for physical fitness is preparing for upcoming hunts and ensuring I’m well prepared to climb mountains and cover ground with a heavy pack. 

I also recognize and respect the importance of conservation efforts for our wild animals and wild places and its close connection to hunting and fishing. (Literally by Federal Regulation) If we want future generations to experience the wonder and adventure of the outdoors, and gain the benefits of self-sufficiency, we must continue to make conservation today’s priority.
