Born and raised in South Louisiana, I have always been an avid sportsman with a deep love for the outdoors. My adventures range from duck hunting in the vast Atchafalaya Delta and the open fields of Kansas to deer hunting in the dense forests of Louisiana and Mississippi. Fishing the entire Gulf Coast is another passion, and I relish the opportunity to get into the heart of Cajun country in the Atchafalaya Basin. This passion for the outdoors inspired me to start my own fishing guide business, helping others experience the thrill of fishing. Additionally, I have managed a deer ranch that worked closely with children’s charities, finding great joy in watching kids enjoy their time in nature. Whether it’s guiding clients to the best fishing spots or seeing the excitement on a child's face during their first outdoor adventure, the outdoors is where I feel most at home.
