I attended Sam Houston State University on a track and field/cross country scholarship. After two years as a Biology major I decided to follow in my dad's footsteps and become a teacher. I transferred to Texas A&M at Corpus Christi and graduated with a Bachelor of Science in Education. I have been teaching for 20 years and coached for 19 of those years. I have a 19 year old son, Easton, who is a sophomore at Texas State University.
