What is your part of rodeo?
My favorite part of rodeo is the roping events. I also enjoy hanging out with my friends that I don't get to see everyday. 
What do you like to do in your free time when you aren't rodeoing?
When I'm not rodeoing, I work at Dave's Country Mart in Tipton as a stockboy and cashier. If I'm not working, I am in the practice pen with my horses. Practice is important.
Who is your rodeo role model?
My rodeo role model is Tuf Cooper. He is my role model because he is where I want to be. He works hard every day to be the best he can be, not only in rodeo but in life as well. He makes fast consistent runs and that's where I want to be with my roping. He makes me push myself to be at the top of my game and he is a super nice individual who will talk to you and not just blow you off.
