I was born in Noblesville, IN and grew up in the farming town of Westfield IN. I graduated Westfield High and received my AA at Florida College in Temple Terrace, FL. I attended Harding University in Searcy, AR and received my BA in Communications at the University of North Alabama in Florence, AL (Home of George Lindsey- "Goober" in the Andy Griffith Show). I started my masters degree at the University of South Alabama before moving back to Indiana to take a position with the Charles Schwab Corp. I became a manager with Schwab and then moved to Texas with my wife, Emily (Jones). We have twin boys, Connor and Landon, born on April 20th, 2006. The Samson Effect is my first published book.
