I was born 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 '88, at the South Carolina Criminal Justice
Academy. Since that time, I've begun to pursue another degree in  
Sociology with a concentration in Criminology and minor in Social Science while
belonging to the PKP and AKD academic honor societies. I have a 23 year old son;
Michael. Recently, I 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 seen
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 for a state police
agency, supplementing 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 most loyal "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... bosses that require
unnecessarily taxing amounts of
self-affirmation... talking to my
imaginary friend...unsolicited advice...
anonymous letter writers... slow drivers
in the fast lane... impatient
people... getting shot at... cheese
puffs, warm buttermilk, and... best of
all... spending
other people's money.
