I am 24 years old, born and raised in San Antonio, Texas. I became interested in severe weather at the young age of 8. It all started when I was playing outside and I noticed a funnel forming overhead. The funnel never became a tornado, but this sparked my interest in severe weather. I then moved to Lubbock, Texas in 2005 to go to school at Texas Tech. Wreck'em. There I began to see the great weather of the south plains. I began chasing in spring of 2006. I graduated in May '09 with a Bachelors of Science in Geosciences and decided to move to Omaha, NE where I currently live. When I am not chasing storms, I enjoy playing tennis, basketball, soccer and golf. I also enjoy studying the bible, playing drums, and playing guitar. I have now teamed up with Severe Studios as a associate contracted chaser with SS. I also own the site TornadoRaiders.com that I started last year to post my videos, pictures, and chase logs of all my past chases.
