Bio

I am originally from Northeast Wisconsin near Green Bay. That is where I spent time with my father and learned to appreciate the outdoors, hunting, and fishing. I graduated with a degree in Forest Management from UW-Stevens Point. The best part of my job is working with landowners to discover their goals and passions for their property.

What I like about Waupaca County: The people are great. They are creative with their land and not shy to conduct and promote sustainable forest management. The diversity of forest types is wonderful and provides options for forest management and great wildlife habitat.

There are also many cooperating foresters who are able to assist you. Cooperating Foresters are consulting foresters or industrial foresters who voluntarily enter into a cooperative agreement with the Wisconsin Department of Natural Resources (DNR). Consulting foresters are private-sector foresters who provide forestry services on a contract or fee basis and who represent the interests of private forest landowners.
