I've been actively involved in firearms training for several decades.  I was immediately interested in shooting ever since my father introduced me to it around the age of 8.  From local 4H shooting sports programs, becoming an NRA certified instructor at 15, to continued interest earning a gunsmithing degree from the world-renowned Colorado School of Trades in Lakewood, Colorado at the age of 20.  From late 2007 thru early 2023, I had the pleasure of being a Lead Instructor at the MidSouth Institute of Combat Shooting in Lake Cormorant, Mississippi.  My time there allowed me to excel not only in shooting, but how I teach.  While at MidSouth, I instructed numerous military, law enforcement, federal, and foreign units from around the globe, and have been very fortunate to enjoy a long term relationship with many of them to this day.
