Objective
for the past thirty eight years I have been in the livestock business, In 1973 I when to work in the summers for Clovis feedyard In Clovis new mexico. after highschool and a few years of rodeo I went back and worked for them Until 1887 at witch time I went to work for three other feedlots. I wanted a little more freedom and adventure and became a packer wrangler and a guide. Gradully working my way up to licenced outfitter and business owner. I sold my half of a succesful yet small business in 1999 and went back to just packing. The outfitting business being a seasonal venture allowed me to work for some large ranches in the winter and learn another aspect of the livestock business. I bring years of experience, loyalty and of deep passion for this line of work. A work ethic to be proud of, dependability, and knowledge
