About The Instructor

I grew up in Keya Paha County, NE on a cattle ranch. Guns were a part of daily life as much as a pitchfork, shovel, or any other tool on a ranch. I grew up hunting and shooting recreationally, as most ranch kids do. I currently reside in Norfolk, NE with my wife, Olivia, and several pets.  

I began my concealed carry journey in 2016 after an apparent attempted break-in of my home. I have been a licensed concealed carrier since then.  

My passion is in advocating for the 2nd Amendment and preserving our right to keep and bear arms. I feel compelled to bring as many new shooters into the fold as I can, and equip them with the knowledge, skills, and confidence needed to feel empowered to be their own first responder.
