I am a former house member who lived in the house from 2006 to 2008 and stayed active with the house until graduating my second time in 2011. I earned both my bachelor’s and master’s degrees in Biological Systems Engineering (BSE) with an emphasis in Machinery Systems. I am currently a Teaching Faculty for the Biological Systems Engineering department where I run a student and research fabrication shop as well as teach BSE courses. Me and my wife, Theresa, along with our son, Kayce, live in Jefferson, Wisconsin on my family farm.

       In my free time I am an avid deer hunter, both archery and gun. Nova, our German Shorthair, also enjoys going pheasant hunting with me. I also enjoy woodworking as well as metalworking. I run my own small business “Milky Way Metalworks, LLC” where I custom design and make metal signs. If that wasn’t enough to keep me busy, I also love the winter when I can get out snowmobiling. I am an active member in my snowmobile club and am a DNR certified Snowmobile Safety Course instructor.

       In addition to serving as the Faculty Advisor for Babcock house I am also the Faculty Advisor for a small engines club on campus and and the ASABE Quarter Scale Tractor team on campus. Living at Babcock was the best decision I made while in college. The vast majority of my college friends that I stay connected with were also Babcockers. I am happy to serve as the Faculty Advisor to give back to Babcock House which gave so much to me as a college student.
