Sam was born in Coldwater, Michigan. With the except of one year in Florida, he has resided here most of his life. Sam now lives in Quincy with his wife and children. In his free time Sam enjoys hunting, fishing, gardening and woodworking. He is a “country boy” at heart. Sam learned about trees from his father, who was a timber buyer. Sam has always enjoyed the peace and tranquility of being in the forest, and has a deep appreciation for trees. He knows that if used sustainably, trees are a renewable resource with many applications.

Sam was a logger from 1995-2006. He completed the Soren Erickson Game of Logging – Logger Certification in 1996. And in 2001 he completed Sustainable Forestry Initiative Classes. Sam joined the Timber Procurement Team at Tri-County Logging in 2012. Sam believes that good communication with landowners is essential to help them to achieve their goals, both financially and for the future growth of their woodlot. Building long term relationships with landowners results in optimum timber management.
