Born and raised in Ann Arbor, MI, it was an easy choice for Tanner to attend the University of Michigan. Graduating with a degree in Environmental Studies, he focused on water resources and urban planning. Tanner grew up with a passion for boating that sprouted from his family’s adventures. He and his two brothers spent most of their free time on the water with their parents.
Tanner and Ashley, newlyweds, have made their home in Charlevoix. They enjoy spending their time sailing, kiteboarding, competitive sailboat racing, skiing, snowboarding, and all activities associated with the water!
