Originally from Mannford, Oklahoma, Charlie now calls the Morrison/Pawnee area home. Growing up, he was active in FFA, where he discovered a love for animals — a passion that led him to show steers competitively. In 2022, he earned Reserve Grand Champion Market Steer at the Tulsa State Fair. These days, he helps his family run a cow-calf operation while pursuing a Business Management degree at Oklahoma State University.

At OSU, Charlie serves as Head Recruiter for the Human Resource Management Association — a role that sparked his interest in people and led him to InterWorks, where he works as a Recruitment Intern.

Charlie values his Christian faith and time with family. On his way to work, you’ll likely catch him listening to Billy Joel, Bob Dylan or newer artists like Elliot James Reay. Outside of work, he’s often watching an OKC Thunder game, reading, enjoying a good movie or cruising in his 1978 Corvette.
