My Biography

I have been in the firearm field for many years consulting with clients about being better protectors of themselves and their families. In 2020, due to the changes that society was experiencing, I decided to work with the USCCA as one of their instructors.I understand the importance of sharing my knowledge and experience with those who want to better prepare themselves for the future. I am 55 years old and my wife, Gina, and I took in a little girl named Madelyn who was four days old. We have recently adopted her and she is ours forever. I have had to modify my personal way of thinking and training because there is so much evil in the world and I now have a little girl to protect in our unpredictable world. Society has changed since my son, Chris, was born 27 years ago and I see the need to adapt and change with it. My plan is to host a variety of classes to help people prepare for defending themselves and their families.
