I grew up surrounded by skilled hunters who showed me the meaning of hard work, patience, and respect for the outdoors. They took me in and taught me the way of the woods. Though I was raised in Florida, I moved to the Eastern Shore of Maryland at 13 to chase the kind of life built around wildlife, land, and real hunting tradition. A buck gets my attention, but waterfowl is where my heart is. There’s nothing like sunrise over a marsh, the sound of wings cutting the air, and geese locking up over the spread. Sitting in the woods is where I reset, clear my mind, and take in God’s creation. I’m committed to sharing the passion of the hunt and keeping the tradition alive for the next generation.

Growing up with three brothers, I was introduced to hunting at a very young age. I loved listening to my father’s stories from his hunts in Africa, Alaska, and out West, which sparked my curiosity and appreciation for the sport early on. Deer hunting quickly became my passion, and I harvested my first deer at just seven years old — I was hooked from that moment on. I’ve always been drawn to the patience, challenge, and discipline that hunting requires. I’m fascinated by the way wildlife interacts so naturally, unaware of me quietly observing them. Hunting has taught me valuable life lessons, and it’s a place where I can disconnect, reset, and appreciate the beauty of nature. My goal is to share that love for the outdoors and pass it along to future generations.

Born and raised on the Eastern Shore of Maryland, I was lucky enough to have the chance to spend all my weekends as a child into young adulthood either in the woods or on the marsh with my grandfather. I learned a lot about things that didn’t seem so important as a kid because in those moments, I was just hunting. Fast forward to now, after spending time abroad in the United States Marine Corps and experiencing life, I returned to the Shore and started a family of my own. It is an overwhelming joy to be able to recreate and share all those youthful experiences and knowledge passed to me from my grandfather. With two sons of my own now (Waylon and Whitley), much of my focus is dedicated to showing them the excitement and amazing experiences that are granted to us by the outdoors. I believe true inner peace and tranquility can be found in any hunting experience whether it be a sunrise in a pit after the first snow of the year, or the heart rattling moments of the rut where action seems to go from nothing to electric in a matter of seconds. My goal is to be the next in line to watch my boys some day pass down to their children that magic that happens on open days and keep the tradition of the hunt alive.
