Tell Us A Bit About Yourself. (Career, Hobbies, Interests)	I'm a husband, father and a Vet. I enjoy the outdoors and spending time with my family. I am also part of a Beard and Mustache club "The Metro Pogonotrophy" that helps raise money for local charities in middle TN. We also travel around the country competing and raising money for other charities. I enjoy giving back and using my beard for good.
What's Your Motto / What Do You Stand For?	Be a good person. You never know what someone else is going through.
Tell Us Why You Have The MEANEST Beard? (Share An Interesting Story Behind Your Beard. We Want To Know Who The Man Behind The Beard Is.)	I haven't seen my face since getting out of the Army in 2002. Hell my oldest son has never seen it. My beard is me. At one point I did it because I wanted to look hard. Now I've had it for so long I don't know what's under there nor do I care to see it. It's grown quite large and changed from a small goatee to a full beard over 14" long and now to one hell of a partial/goatee.

My beard has scared and traumatized many people in my role as Chuckles the Clown and I have yet to even reach my final form. Some might even say I resemble a fisherman NPC from a Pokémon game when I'm out on the water. And was one of the few people allowed to have a beard at my job due to the fact its part of my religion and everyday life style.

Tell Us Why You Have The MEANEST Beard? (Share An Interesting Story Behind Your Beard. We Want To Know Who The Man Behind The Beard Is.)	I traveled to Kathmandu, Nepal in 2019 to share my trade, preach the Gospel, and teach kids to play the ukulele. I stuck out like a sore thumb as an American who was bearded, 6" taller, and 3x as heavy as the average Nepali man! All eyes were on me everywhere I went, but the people were warm and loving once you get to know them. I was there to teach/preach so having all attention was a good thing! I will return in 2021 with 2 more yrs growth!
