He has also served as director and president of the High Plains Paint Horse Club, director of the Rocky Mountain Paint Horse Association and a member of the Zone 3 Coordinating Committee, National Western Club, Judges Committee of the National Western Stock Show and Equine Committee of the National Western Stock Show—all of which directly affect the equine industry in his home state of Colorado.
