Summary
I grew up in Velma, OK in an oil field family that taught me the values of hard work at a young age. I did oil field work most of my life until I got the opportunity to play college football which is when I made the decision to go a different route and get into coaching. Teaching and coaching student athletes over the years has been highly rewarding and taught me the importance of leading by example, building relationships, and committing to excellence. As much as I have enjoyed my time in the education field it is time for a change and I am eager to explore new career opportunities. My wife Rylee and I have just begun the process of relocating towards central Oklahoma to be closer to family and focus on starting a family of our own.
