Born and raised in Madison South Dakota, I am a lifelong resident and 4th generation South Dakotan. In 2009, I graduated from Madison High School and enlisted in the U.S Marine Corps serving as an Infantry Machine Gun Squad Leader with 1st Battalion 5th Marines. I was deployed to the Pacific with the 31st Marine Expeditionary Unit and I worked to build relations with the Japanese, Thai, and Philippine forces. Around this time is where I was also first introduced to the sport of cycling, spending many group rides with the San Clemente Renegades.

In 2013, I finished my service and started work as a paraprofessional at Madison High School, later working as Tech Support. Back home in the wintery north I got interested in Fat Bike racing/riding and participated in many local races & events. In 2015 I joined the 211th En. Co. located in Madison, SD as a combat engineer. After three years of service in the South Dakota National Guard, I ended my military career with 7 total years of combined service. During this time I extended my service as a State Representative for the 8th District of South Dakota and founded Wollmann Productions, which my wife and I managed for 7 years.

October 7th, 2017 I married my amazing wife Emily, and we currently reside in Madison. In 2018 I started work for the Madison Police Department as a patrolman and completed my Bachelor's Degree thanks to the incredible staff and resources at Dakota State University. As of 2023 I'm a part-time cop and professional pilot.
