Why did you pursue a career in forestry? I love spending time outdoors, so working in forestry allows me to spend a great deal of my time doing so. Most importantly, I get to be a steward of God’s creation.

What do you like the most about your role with AFM? My favorite part is working with a great team in the Texas Region. I love sharing my knowledge with young foresters coming out of school and watching them develop and grow, making their own mark in the industry.
