Hunter in real life
What keeps you busy outside of work?
Most of my free time is spent with my wife and our two sons. I enjoy staying active outdoors, spending time with family and friends, and hunting.
What makes you tick?
What makes me tick is a genuine love for people and a drive to make a positive impact. Growing up in small-town Oklahoma, I learned from my parents early on the value of honesty, hard work, and helping others — lessons that have shaped my approach in life and work.
Favorite thing about where you live?
I love learning about Oklahoma’s rich history and heritage. We are a state full of lakes, beautiful prairies, and folks who encompass the Oklahoma Standard.
