I am passionate about spreading knowledge of the Cowboy Culture through poetry.
I participate in various Cowboy Gathering events, Community Social events, while also providing interviews on the radio and in newspapers.
I have had amazing opportunities to recite, teach, and present the art of Cowboy Poetry.
