Born in Virginia, my father took me fishing for brook trout and bass in ponds and streams. Growing up I developed a passion for fishing and hunting. At the age of eight my family and I moved to Colorado. This is where my bass fishing passion really began. Although most of the fishing in Colorado was for trout there were many bass ponds near my house. I got hooked the first time bass fishing when I landed a 7 lb lunker with 6 lb test. That is when my dream formed to be a professional bass angler. At the age of sixteen, I joined Centennial Bass Club. That club got me hooked on tournament fishing and taught me many valuable lessons. I was cutting my teeth on all the nearby ponds and lakes learning finesse fishing in clear water, flipping in muddy water, rattle traps in weedy ponds, and consuming all the knowledge I could from TV shows, magazines, and books that I could. In fact, I was awarded 14 master angler awards for bass in the State of Colorado. After graduating high school I enrolled in Colorado State University and started my studies in fishery biology.

             After a year, the bass fishing passion had me only thinking about one thing, BASS. I was still in the bass club and was leading the angler of the year points, but I wanted more. My family supported my dream and moved me to Lake Guntersville, in August 2004, so I could pursue my dream. In the first year I spent over 150 days on the lake, and eat/sleep bass fishing. I have since caught the biggest bass of my life, several times over, with three over nine pounds. In 2006, I went through the United States Coast Guard program and became USCG certified as a merchant marine officer.

            My dream is to become a professional tournament angler but I started my guide business so I could fish for a living and teach others proven tactics on Lake Guntersville. In 2008, I will be fishing the Bassmaster Southern Opens as well as the ABA Weekend Series.

            I would like to thank all my clients who have fished with me and for giving me the opportunity to teach. It has been a very rewarding experience. I would also like to thank all my sponsors Kistler Rods, Sunline, and Choo Choo Lures who have helped me along the way.
