CLASS:
Air Force Junior ROTC
I was born and raised in Mississippi. After graduating high school, I
attended Mississippi State University. I was commissioned as an Air Force
officer after completing ROTC at MSU. I served over 20 years on active duty,
lived in numerous places around the globe, and retired from the Air Force at
the rank of Lieutenant Colonel. I briefly worked with college students at a
major university before moving to Lexington, Tennessee and becoming a Junior
ROTC instructor. I am in my fourth year of teaching and mentoring high
school cadets in order to help them become "citizens of character", and I
truly love my job! My wife and I have three wonderful daughters.
