Born in 1960 in Kingstree, S.C. Graduated from Camden High School in 1979. Graduated from Clemson University in 1983 with a degree in Economic Zoology with a focus in Entomology. I received my Doctorate of Dental Medicine from the Medical University of South Carolina in 1989. I have practiced General Dentistry in Sumter since 1995.

I married my wife Parrish in 1992 and we have three grown children, all of whom graduated from Clemson University.

Outside of work I enjoy the outdoors, landscaping projects and hunting. My family and I have been fortunate to be able to travel to several National Parks including Grand Canyon, Yosemite and Glacier National Park. Our time in Montana is one of our fondest memories.
