I am originally from California. I am a retired Army veteran with over 21 years of service as an Infantry soldier with three years spent as a Drill Sergeant. I was stationed with the 101st on three occasions before retiring from the service as a Screaming Eagle. I attended college at Austin Peay State University where I earned a B.S. in History/Geography and a teaching certificate, I have also earned a Master’s Degree in Military History and a Graduate Certificate in Securities Studies. I have a married son, a married daughter and grandchildren. I am looking forward to teaching Military History this year as a new class to Rossview High. I am also the sponsor of The History Club.
