I have been a maker of Pennsylvania longrifles since 2000. I am a United States Army Infantry veteran. Between 1987 and 2020, I've had careers as a Pennsylvania Wildlife Conservation Officer, Chief of a Tennessee police department, and part- time boating officer for the Tennessee Wildlife Resources Agency. In 2020, I retired from a 33-year law enforcement career to became a full-time maker of Pennsylvania longrifles, pistols, fowlers, and decorative turkey box calls doing business as Gobbler Knob Longrifles.

I have a social media presence on LinkedIn and GoWild.
