    My Professional Journey

    My formal training began at Iowa Valley Community College, where I specialized in Gunsmith Technology. This intensive program provided me with a comprehensive understanding of firearm design, function, repair, and customization, laying a strong foundation for my career.

    Following my graduation, I had the privilege of working for Caesar Guerini for three years. This experience was invaluable, allowing me to hone my skills with high-end firearms and gain in-depth knowledge of precision manufacturing and quality control in a renowned industry setting. I dedicated myself to ensuring the exceptional performance and reliability that Caesar Guerini shotguns are known for.

    Beyond the Bench

    Outside of my professional endeavors, my passion for firearms truly comes alive in the field and on the range. I am an avid upland bird hunter, finding immense satisfaction in the challenges and rewards of pursuing game birds across diverse landscapes. This pursuit not only connects me with nature but also provides a practical application for my technical expertise, as I rely on well-maintained and precisely tuned firearms.

    I also greatly enjoy shooting sporting clays. The dynamic nature of this sport continually hones my shooting skills, requiring precision, quick reflexes, and an understanding of lead and trajectory. It’s a challenging and rewarding way to stay sharp and enjoy the camaraderie of fellow shooting enthusiasts.

    My unique blend of formal gunsmithing education, industry experience with a premium brand like Caesar Guerini, and active participation in shooting sports gives me a comprehensive perspective on firearms.

    I’m always eager to connect with fellow enthusiasts, discuss technical aspects of firearms, share hunting stories, or explore opportunities related to gunsmithing and shooting.
