born in New York City (New York City!?,) raised in Miami, Florida, graduated college at the great United States Air Force Academy, and served as a US Air Force Officer in Arizona, West Texas, Tennessee, Louisiana, and Guam, meeting thousands of great people in every corner of our nation.

I earned a Master's in Aeronautical Science (Management) during my service followed by my MBA from the University of Miami. I settled in Fort Bend County over a decade ago and have enjoyed working in the Oil & Gas industry to this very day. I have traveled and worked with fantastic citizens in dozens of countries on four continents.

I am the father of the greatest four kids on the planet (in my humble opinion.) My oldest son is a firefighter in the same department I used to volunteer at here in Fort Bend Country. My gorgeous wife is a nurse of ten years at the OakBend Medical Center in Richmond, Texas. Our home is in Missouri City. Then I have my three princesses: one in high school, and two in elementary in both Fort Bend and Katy ISD systems.

I am very active in my community as a volunteer. I have coached football for teams that my children did not play for since I was in college and to this day coach in the Fort Bend Youth Football League for my 6th season. I served as a volunteer Firefighter and EMT outside Olive Branch, Mississippi and recently in Stafford, Texas. I’ve served as a committeeman and assistant captain at the Houston Livestock Show and Rodeo for 6 years
