I am just a small town guy, who grew up in Pocahontas, Arkansas.
Marching to my own beat, I studied at the University of Central Arkansas (Go Bears!) in instrumental music education; however, I seemed to have gotten off beat when I started working as a student in Residence Life.

Now, Moon Pies and Mardi Gras aside, to complete my M.Ed. in Educational Leadership as the Community Director for Fraternity & Sorority Housing at the University of South Alabama.

From there I was able to find my Clemson Home as the Coordinator for Fraternity Sorority Housing, and continue following my passion for working with students.

I value support and relationships. While these seem to go hand in hand you can have both without the other, however, when they work in harmony they truly enhance the workplace. Working with people and interacting for more than a transactional reason.

What do you enjoy doing when you are not working?

When I am not working, I find my harmony in life by either fostering an appreciation for (torturing my partner) Disney+, or painstakingly ensuring we keep up with any TV/Movie universes we have set out to conquer. Additionally, I like to find myself on the other side of an empty plate, either going to or from somewhere new; or one of us makes something at home, as we both like to cook! Somewhere in there I also find time to work on getting my way through different literature. I cannot say whether I am shaken or stirred, but I am building my knowledge on these things. Nonetheless, I like to travel, and one of my favorite places to go is to see my godchild.
