“Without livestock judging and higher education, I wouldn’t be the person I am today. I’ve been blessed to have been a part of state and national champion teams, both in high school and college, and those experiences have opened so many doors that have been instrumental in my life. I’ve traveled overseas in Scotland and Ireland, made lifelong connections within the agriculture Industry, achieved success, and met my beautiful wife, all as a result of livestock judging. I strongly believe that being a part of a livestock judging team is one of the best things a young person can do for endless reasons.”
