SSE BACKGROUND
Being an outdoors enthusiast living and working in south central Pennsylvania. The sport of firearm shooting has been part of my journey since the beginning. Having spent time competing in pistol competitions I decided to become an NRA certified instructor to help people enjoy the sport as I have grown to.
As I've educated myself about safe storage and handling, firearm maintenance, precision shooting and the legalese of gun ownership my confidence and competencies have grown which is what I feel I can pass on to others.
2020's pandemic helped me realize our community was in need of an education resource; one that would welcome students of all levels, provide a safe learning atmosphere and embrace the fun of this sport. I launched Safe Shooting Education in November of 2020 and look forward to many years educating others on safe firearm handling and shooting.
