About the Teacher

I grew up in a small farm town in southern Iowa.  When my two brothers and I were not employed in farm and ranch work, we were competing in high school rodeo. In 1980, I had the honor of representing my state at the High School National Finals Rodeo in Yakima, Washington.

Twelve days after graduating from high school in 1981, I enter active duty in the US Army. Over the next 7 years, I served with the 2nd Ranger Battalion at Ft Lewis, Washington, 7th Special Forces (Airborne) at Ft Bragg, North Carolina, and as a Ranger instructor with the 2nd Ranger Company near Dahlonega, Georgia. I was medically discharged in 1987 due to a severe back injury.

I worked in the construction industry full time for two years and then part time while attending North Georgia College. I graduated from college with a degree in English and certification to teach high school English. I taught English for five years at Lumpkin County High School. It was while teaching at LCHS that I received a Master Plumber license and operated a one-man plumbing business.

1n 1998, my family and I moved to Blairsville when I was hired to teach at North Georgia Tech. For two years, I taught Developmental Math and English. I then transferred to the Computer Information Systems department and taught the Web Design Program for two more years. It was during that time that I earned my Certified Internet Webmaster (CIW) certification. In 2003, I was hired to teach in the technology lab at UCMS.
