I have been an outdoorsman all my life. I picked up my first fishing pole and longbow 25 years ago. I grew up in Alaska and have lived across the Pacific Northwest and the many southern states. I have been teaching and guiding people in outdoor activities ever since I was a kid. After high school, I chose to become a Marine Scout Sniper and Marine Raider because I wanted to serve my country and protect those I love in the most elite fighting organization on earth. I am proud and fulfilled in my military service over the last decade and I am looking forward to my next engagement. Growing up in Alaska I had God's great creation at my doorstep. It was my refuge and I needed a refuge. The woods and the waters became my safe place during chaotic and trying times. My faith in God and strong pull to be in wild places has aided in my healing from personal traumatic experiences. I now serve others in a new capacity by providing them with a safe and joyful environment in the great outdoors thorough my business "HOG's Tooth Outfitters". Our mission is to provide a safe place for active duty, combat veterans, first responders, and law enforcement to receive healing from their own traumatic life experiences and allowing them to live genuine lives of freedom.
