I grew up in Dayton, Ohio and after graduating from Clemson University I returned to Dayton to attend law school at the University of Dayton. After a few restless years practicing in Dayton I joined the Navy as a JAG Corps officer. It was early in my Navy career that I met my wife who had joined the Marine Corps about one year earlier. She later became a Marine Corps lawyer and served 26 years on active duty before retiring in 2015. I served about 3.5 years on active duty with the Navy, retiring from the Reserves in 2010 with 20 years of service.

After leaving active duty in 1993 I was looking for a new direction for my legal career and entered the Master of Laws in Taxation program at the College of William and Mary, graduating in 1996. It was that same year that I began working for my now-partner, Boyd Tisdale. We have enjoyed a wonderful relationship for more than 20 years now.

My wife and I have four children, a son who is on a football scholarship to the College of William and Mary, two teenage girls (please pray for me) and an 8 year old boy who is tearing up the 3rd grade.
