I was born in Kinston, North Carolina but was raised mostly in Columbus, Georgia. I finished high school in Greeley, Colorado and graduated from college at the US Air Force Academy in 1987. I then spent 5 years active duty in the Air Force in Warner Robins. I began teaching and coaching football in 2004 at WRHS. I moved to WIN Academy in 2022. My wife and I live in Hawkinsville.
