DREAM ALTERNATE CAREER: Architecture. Over the years, I’ve collaborated closely with architects and contractors on major renovations.
SOMETHING SURPRISING: I own a farm and timberland in Alabama where I spend weekends and holidays enjoying the outdoors with my family.
PASSION PROJECT: I’ve transformed my passions for sporting clay shooting and hunting into a successful fundraising initiative for Pensacola State College. What began as a personal interest has grown into our largest annual event supporting the PSC Foundation, bringing together community partners and supporters to invest in student success and the College’s mission.
