Bio
I grew up outside of a small town south of Madison and spent most of my time helping my grandparents on their dairy farm. I always enjoyed being outdoors and forestry seemed like a natural decision when I got to college. I attended UW-Madison and studied Forest Management. In my free time, I enjoy camping, hiking, running, and spending time in the woods. Helping landowners achieve their forest objectives is the most rewarding part of being a forester.
What I like about Oneida County: People own woodland property here for a wide range of reasons. I enjoy helping each person reach the goals they have for their property.
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.
