While attending Harlandale High School he participated in their vocational program, he was employed by Shirley Brown's Corral Shop, located in the Joske's downtown store. There he learned the art and craft of custom saddlery.

His saddles could be spotted in movies, the tack rooms of many south Texas ranches and professional cowboys. Here's a clip from his obituary in 2018 in San Antonio:
