Sam Stoklosa (AKA Tadpole)

Sam grew up in Morrison, Colorado, and quickly felt overwhelmed with the growth of the state. He then moved to Montana in an effort to get away from people, enjoy the amazing fishing, and try to go to college. Once he realized he enjoyed standing in the river and doing things with his hands more than sitting at a desk, he took a break from school and explored the beautiful state of Montana. Sam has always had an interest in metal work, so he decided to take a course at the local community college for welding. After 9 months he was certified and looking for a job in the metal industry. Sam has been a fabricator for about a year now and loves the sense of pride that he feels when he has built something that has a reason and purpose behind it.
