I was born and raised in Elgin, IA, a small rural community in NE Iowa. After graduating from Wartburg College I pursued my passion in the golf industry. I had the opportunity to serve as a golf pro at a few fun courses scattered throughout the US. Upon getting married to my wife Holly, we came back home to Iowa where we have been raising our two kids in Indianola.

In 2008 I joined Nationwide Insurance and I have spent the last 17 years in the insurance industry where I have had the opportunity to help individuals with personal insurance solutions. I really appreciate being in a community like Osceola where people value relationships, trust, and friendly service.

Hollie and I enjoy golfing, traveling, and spending time with our busy kids at all of their activities. We have one son, Jace, and one daughter, Alexa.
