"Watch your thoughts; they become words.
Watch your words; they become actions.
Watch your actions; they become habits.
Watch your habits; they become your character.
Watch your character; it becomes your destiny."

Home
I grew up far away from here - Rhode Island - and after getting off Active Duty in the Army, made the good decision to move to Tennessee. I've now been here for more than 21 years, so this is definitely home. I met my wife, the former Diana Booth, shortly after moving to TN. Diana attended FHU prior to going to Pharmacy school. We've now been married for over 19 years. We have two children attending Jackson Christian School (8th & 11th grade) and are very proud of both of them.
I served in each branch of the Army (Active, Reserve, and National Guard) for a combined total of 23 years, 8 months, and 10 days. I served in both the Enlisted and the Officer Corps, retiring in October 2008 at the rank of Major. I am very proud of my military service and am happy to encourage others to explore opportunities that the military can provide.
My family and I worship at the North Jackson church of Christ. I currently serve as a Deacon and co-teach an Adult class on Sunday mornings. My wife is active in a variety of activities in the church, to include teaching. My kids are very active in the youth group.
I started teaching with Freed-Hardeman in August 2009. Prior to this new and exciting opportunity, I worked in bedside nursing and management positions, primarily in the Emergency Department setting. I'm very excited about being a part of the Freed-Hardeman family and growing within the university and the department of nursing.
