A little about me personally...I have been married to Joanna for 26 years who I met in college at Tarleton State University. She is an elementary ELAR teacher at Melba Passmore in Alvin ISD. We have two sons Chance and Bryce. My hobbies include spending time with family traveling, cooking, reading and playing golf. 
 
My goal in life is to make those around me better. I believe in the ripple effect that we can be the pebble in the water that impacts those around us. I try to daily fill my cup so I can pour into those I'm around. Life is not about serving ourselves but others.
