Tell us about your professional work and what you enjoy most about your job.
I own two businesses that I love. Both are in the digital marketing space. I love sales and marketing. Both companies are my "entrepreneurial outlet" that basically lets me do what I love all day, every day.
What are some of your hobbies?
I love cookouts with friends and traveling with my family to fun places.
What special talents and gifts do you have?
If you were picking me for your kickball team of life, you'd probably pick me for my organizational leadership experience OR my well preserved 40-yard dash speed(not really).
How would you describe yourself?
I'm a dreamer like many other members. I love ideas and "chasing squirrels" like every other visionary entrepreneur you'd meet. Let's have coffee or a meal sometime and figure out how to make your dream a reality.
What makes Samford so special for you?
That's extremely hard to narrow down. I met my wife at Samford. I played Division 1 baseball at Samford. I met lifelong friends that will help me at any point in life when I need it. My spiritual journey was enhanced by the Samford ecosystem. I was the first college graduate of my family thanks to Samford's support. Samford changed the trajectory of my entire life.
What inspired you to first get involved in supporting the student-athlete experience at Samford?
So much has been given to me through my student athlete experience. I only hope I can continue to increase my support. Thanks to Maggie and the staff for making a clear pathway for support that we can participate in.
What makes you proud to be a Samford Bulldog Club member?
As a human, we all want to belong. The Samford Bulldog Club is a tribe that helps us always have a place we can invest in. It's a community that will nurture those that will follow in our footsteps.
