Live Wild Eat Wild is a resource for all hunters, anglers, and anyone looking to improve their cooking skills with wild fish and game. I focus on the entire process, from the first step into the wilderness to the last bite of dinner. The common response almost anyone gives who has sampled wild game before is “I don’t like ___, it’s gamey, tough and dry”. My goal is to stop that type of experience. But, the problem is that there isn’t much information out there on how to really cook your wild game. Over the years of studying cooking techniques and testing out recipes, I've learned that wild game can taste just as good (or better) than anything you can get at a restaurant – if you cook it right. I started Live Wild Eat Wild to connect my passions - marketing and the outdoors - into one seamless asset that people around the world can use to improve their wild game experience. I manage the Instagram, Facebook page, Facebook group, and website, which totals over 36,000 dedicated, active followers - an audience that I’ve acquired in a little over one year of operation.Over the past few years, I've lead seminars and presentations about wild game cooking, hunting, butchering and more. I developed and launched a line of merchandise and branding, and developed our website. I've established multiple industry partnerships and co-branding campaigns to help those partner brands expand their reach and exposure.
