Author bio

I was born in St. Louis, Missouri, in 1981. Still, I was raised in southern Missouri’s Mark Twain National Forest for many years before moving north to Hannibal, the home of Samuel Clemens, aka Mark Twain. I reside in the northern section of the Shawnee National Forest in southern Illinois with my family, including our two big, stinky dogs. I’m an avid conservationist, hunter, hiker, camper, kayaker, swimmer, rock climber, etc. I find complete solace when in the Great Outdoors.
