Life defining moments
The Accident
My life-defining moment came in the form of a severe ATV accident that left me permanently handicapped and it was my fault. Although it forced me to face countless surgeries and challenges, it also shaped me into a resilient, resourceful, and accountable individual. I embraced the unique opportunities from my situation, spending extra time with my father learning the oil business in northeast Ohio, and exploring technology during my recovery. This experience taught me the true meaning of hard work and making the most of what I have.
Farmer First
Growing up on a Midwest farm, my life was defined by resilience, self-reliance, and hard work. I took animals to the county fair every year, learning the importance of responsibility and care.

These experiences have greatly influenced my character and drive in both personal and professional aspects of my life.
