John Marksberry

Forester / Wildlife Biologist

His name is John, but it should be Jack-of-all-trades. John is a native of Splendora, Texas but moved to Hemphill, Texas while in high school. He then went on to Stephen F. Austin State University and received a bachelor’s degree in Forest Wildlife Management. John can sing, play guitar, hunt, fish, make jerky and jelly, and carve duck decoys. He also likes archery, Native American artifacts, nature photography, the mountains of Colorado, and is a big fan of George Jones. More than all of that, he is a husband and father. John joined the team right after graduating SFASU in May of 2016. John and Cheyenne currently reside in Deadwood, Texas which is a great central location between the Bird Forestry offices.
