DANIEL LANIER

Cell (434) 509-8530 • daniel@wattsara.com

Daniel Lanier is an experienced auctioneer who graduated from the Mendenhall School of Auctioneering in June of 2004. He gets lots of practice selling livestock at Lynchburg and Blackstone Livestock markets during the week. But on the weekends, things change a little. The cowboy boots and hat come out, and he leaves for the rodeo working as an entertaining Barrelman Clown and Announcer. Sometimes he goes just to watch his family's bulls buck off the contestants... Either way, he is always looking for an Auction or Rodeo near you!
