ABOUT

My wife Tabitha and I have been married since July 2, 1999 and have two awesome children: Briana and Nicholas. We tend to stay very busy with work, school, and play . . . and football.

My educational career actually arose from a variety of careers I spent many years enjoying. I began college at PJC majoring in Computer Science. Before I graduated, a life of service to teens called me into vocational ministry at local churches in the panhandle. While finishing my Bachelor's degree in Religion from the University of Mobile, I also worked as a construction superintendant, which helped pay for college and all the bills. Then, in 2005, I was presented with an opportunity to teach and coach in Petal, MS. Education was not a career I had thought about coming out of high school; however, these last 12 years have been a tremendous blessing. It truly is a career that utilizes all my talents and passions.
