| I was born July 2, 1966 in Rock Hill, SC. A few years ago, I purchased the house across the street from Mom's. I graduated from the University Of South Carolina with an honors degree (believe it or not!) in Criminal Justice and completed Basic Law Enforcement training, in 1988, at the South Carolina Criminal Justice Academy. Since that time, I've began to pursue another degree in Sociology with a concentration in Criminology. I have a 21 year old son; Michael. I've found myself single again and have discovered (1) that you can't wash whites and colored towels together with Clorox because it turns everything pink and (2) "cream of chicken" soup really isn't that bad straight out of the can. |
| In '99, I was one of the founding members of the Miller's Creek bluegrass band. This band has proven to be a great opportunity as it has allowed me to travel across most of the United States and see things I would have never saw otherwise. One of the greatest benefits has been making so many wonderful friends. It's always sad to say goodbye. |

| I became an officer with the Rock Hill Police Department in '88 and remained there until '01. I worked in various capacities including Patrolman, Master Police Officer, and Sergeant. Most of my time there was spent as a road officer... until... I made the Chief mad and was transferred to the Detective Division. I am now proud to serve as the Assistant Chief of Police for an upstate South Carolina law enforcement agency. I supplement my regular duties as a Master Instructor at our police academy. I'm proud to say that I've spent the best years of my life working to be the best "Yes Man" money could buy. |
| I certainly don't have much free time and; therefore, I don't have many hobbies. I do; however, enjoy dealing with undependable people... occasional, marginally- irritating unsolicited vocal commentary...whiners... tales of woe...people who leave the cap locks on... administrators that require unnecessarily taxing amounts of self-affirmation... talking to my imaginary friend...unsolicited advice... slow drivers in the fast lane... impatient people... getting shot at... cheese puffs, and... best of all... spending other people's money. |
