Hi, I’m JJ. I am from Grand Rapids, Minnesota and started with Family Heritage in July of 2017. I work primarily in my home town and surrounding areas covering Northern Minnesota. I am married to Nichole and have an 8 year old daughter Irie that means the world to me. Before coming to FHD I was a Sales Manager at a marine dealership for almost 10 years and sold advertising and cars before coming to FHD.

What I enjoy most about working here is the family that we have created. There is no other culture where people care about each other and want everyone to be successful. Any competition here is friendly and if I do well it doesn’t have a negative impact on anyone around me, actually quite the opposite. I am allowed to put my family first, which is very important to me. Oh, the trips with my work family are always AMAZING too.

When I’m not working you can find me out trying to catch fish with friends and family, hunting, or traveling.

The three words that describe me best are family, fun, and caring.

Two items on my bucket list include:

I want more than anything to catch a Crappie in Minnesota that is over 16 inches long.

To harvest a 150 inch plus Minnesota buck.

Fun - Fact: my spirit animal would be a lion because I love my down time, but if it comes to family or friends, I can be one of the fiercest people you will ever meet.
