| Judge personal information: |
I competed on the 2001 University of Tennessee at Martin Livestock Judging Team coached by Kyle Rozeboom. Our team placed in the top five at the American Royal (winning the sheep division) and we were in the top ten at NAILE. I was high individaul in reasons in Sioux Falls, South Dakota, second high individual judge at the Mid-South Fair Livestock Judging Context and 6th high individual in Beef at NAILE.
Since graduating college, I have coached several successful 4-H and FFA livestock judging teams. Two of those teams earned opportunities to compete at the National Western Stock Show 4-H Livestock Judging and another team earned the opportunity to compete at the Keystone International Livestock Judging Contest in Harrisburg, PA.
I have judged numerous 4-H/FFA county, district and state shows across the Southeastern United States. |
