depending on what region you live in and now that I’m back home, I feel like I have a piece of each one of them in me. WHAT ARE YOUR GOALS FOR THE FUTURE?

Most of the steers have predominantly been through trade and I will always love the trade, but I’m really getting into the breeding aspect now. WHAT IS SOMETHING YOU WOULD LIKE TO DO THAT YOU HAVE NOT DONE YET? That’s a tough one. I suppose maybe judge a bigger show. I don’t come from a judging background at all, so I don’t even know if I’d like it, but it would definitely be a challenge that I haven’t taken on yet.
WHAT DO YOU LIKE THE MOST ABOUT WHAT YOU DO?
I really like the people we get to be around, especially the kids. I’m pretty much a big kid myself, so I jive with them well. Getting to see so many places is also a joy. WHAT IS SOMETHING MOST PEOPLE DON’T KNOW ABOUT YOU? Probably that even though God’s given some talent for clipping and fitting cattle and it’s gotten me a career. I really really enjoy showing slick sheared steers. WHAT EVENTS HAVE SHAPED YOU AS A PERSON? I don’t know if I can put my finger on specific events.
