Hi, I grew up in the Grindstone area North of Philip S.D., attended Philip High School, and went to South Dakota State University.

I majored in Range Science, minored in Ag Business, Economics, and Animal Science.

I spent some time as a SDSU Extension Agent, and started teaching Career and Technical Education   courses here in Kadoka in 1994. I am also the FFA advisor. Our ag classes here at Kadoka Area have a great mix of classroom and hands-on technical skills, such as construction, welding, and electricity.

For both my wife and I, this area is home and we enjoy the advantages our small town.
