“When our customers are successful, we’re successful.”
One of the most rewarding experiences for me has been working on and building the family farm with my two brothers, where we raise corn, soybeans, and swine out near Emery.
I’m passionate about supporting farmers and ranchers because I know what it’s like to go through tough economic times. I also value strong relationships within the ag industry; they become lasting relationships, as people work with people they relate to and trust.
With previous career experience in agronomy, my farming background, and a business administration degree from Augie, I excel in helping producers improve agricultural inputs, breakevens, day-to-day operations, and crop management.
My wife, Krista, and I have three kids: Joseph, Lane, and Kennedy. We love attending their sporting events, and my other hobbies include hunting, fishing, riding ATVs in the Black Hills, and spending time on a boat at the river.
I also volunteer at career and leadership development events for FFA and with Bridgewater-Emery’s Career and Technical Education program.
Some of my greatest accomplishments have been playing college football, receiving a Leader of Distinction award for prospect conversions during my time working for Pioneer Seed, starting a successful agriculture consulting and application business, and being a father!
