So you are probably asking yourself, plumbing company, author and an auctioneer?
You could say that it is in my bloodline.
​
Growing up, I worked for my grandpa's auction business. I’ve attended what feels like 100 estate auctions, but since I was not a licensed auctioneer, I was not able to legally call bids.
Bid calling (what most consider the fast talking) is an art. The best auctioneers have a chant that is soothing to the ear and if you’re not careful will cause you to spend more money than you originally planned.
On January 30, 2021, I was introduced to an organization called Dream on 3, a nonprofit that's centered around giving ‘dreams’ to children who have life altering disabilities.
​
This particular year (due to COVID) the auction was going to be online, but the system crashed.
​
Encouraged by my friends, I hopped on stage and did my best grandpa rendition to help sell a few items for the event. You could say "God winked that night." That event kickstarted what would become Caring Chant Auctions.
In 2022, I partnered with my cousin, Jason West, who has been a licensed auctioneer for nearly 20 years!
