I'll start with a little history of myself. I was born and raised on the Iron Range in Northern Minnesota. I grew up in the towns of Chisholm and Hibbing, graduating from Hibbing High School in 1993. I immediately joined the United States Army and headed for basic training as an Infantryman at Fort Benning Georgia. After basic training, I had the privilege to be stationed at The Rock in Kirchgoens, Germany for two and a half years. In my time there I was deployed twice for 6 months each to Macedonia and Bosnia. I finished my military tour At Fort Irwin, California in 1997.

After returning home I went to college to become a Diesel Mechanic, finishing a year and a half later being the top 3 in my class and being hired before my second year of college was over. I was lucky enough to be hired by a Caterpillar dealer near my hometown and worked on the job for my last semester grades, which kicked off the career I have had for the last 25+ years. Currently, I am a Service Manager of 15+ years for a used mining parts company and have been with them for 19+ years.

I have 3 beautiful children, my beautiful bride and love of my life, and an absolutely awesome grandson and granddaughter. My family is more important to me than life itself. With the family that I have, I am a really rich guy.

Over four years ago I decided that my life needed a change as my career feels like it has taken a halt, and I have achieved all I can to achieve. Being the person I am, I could not accept that and decided that I would reach my goal of being a CEO of a company even if it's my own. So, I decided that I want to work with what I love and that is horses and all other animals. I took a certification class through Therasage Equine Massage Certification and earned a certification in Equine Massage then further went to become a Magnawave PEMF Practitioner. Last year and this year I furthered my education to become an Equine physical therapist and a Muscle rehab therapist on. The choice to start Willow Rook Ranch has been the most rewarding so far.

So now, as many business owners do, I decided to team up with Kairos Wellness Center on yet another adventure to help people with the therapies that I practice and have been enhancing over the last 4 years. I will be helping to manage issues through focused massage, PEMF Therapy, and other modalities that are in my toolbox.
