How long have you competed in lumberjack sports?
11 years.
How did you get involved in lumberjack sports and when did you start competing?
I got involved after a fellow competitor, LaVonne Mikloiche invited my then 10-year-old son to learn the sport. So rather than spectating I thought that I should learn as well. I first started competing in 2008.

Stock Saw.
