Judge personal information:

I breed and sell competitve southdown, blackface cross club lambs and breeding stock as well as boer goats. We have shown all throughout the country and have goats and lambs placed from coast to coast. I am most interested in judging market lambs/wether goats. I do also enjoy juging market hogs as well. I am most pasionate about the club lamb industry and improving upon the Southdown breed. Previously I had served as a FFA coach for Countryside Academy in Berrien County, MI.
