I graduated High School in Eastern Kentucky from Boyd County High. I participated in every sport imaginable and graduated in the top 10 of my class. I had a strange route through college that started in Kentucky and ended in Tampa , Florida. I graduated with a Bachelor of Science degree with a major in accounting and a minor in math, from the University of South Florida. Teaching has now become my third career. I moved to Perry with my wife Peggy in 2006. I became a Math teacher at Perry two years later. This career will be my 2nd retirement.
