About Me

Here’s just a bit about me.  I’m a Christian and a member of a Southern Baptist Church. I enjoy photography, attempt to play golf, and enjoy volunteering at the Ronald McDonald House of Knoxville and Mission of Hope.

Ronald McDonald House
My wife and I have volunteered at the Ronald McDonald House for many years. The Ronald McDonald House of Knoxville provides a “home away from home” for families of seriously ill children receiving treatment at nearby hospitals. The House provides a comfortable, supportive, temporary residence near the medical facility where family members can sleep, eat, relax and find support from other families in similar situations.

Mission of Hope
My wife and I have just recently started volunteering with the Mission of Hope. The Mission of Hope concentrates on serving people throughout poverty stricken rural areas of Appalachia in Southeast Kentucky and Northeast Tennessee. To accomplish their goals of providing assistance, the Mission of Hope seeks supplies, resources, monetary donations and grants from individuals, businesses, corporations, service groups and civic organizations. The Mission of Hope then distributes donated items and purchased materials to areas of rural Appalachia where they are then delivered to needy individuals and families through the support of school resource centers and local ministries, already established within the communities which we serve.

Dave Ramsey
My wife and I are also Financial Peace University Coordinators at our church. Financial Peace University is a 13 week course that deals with a different topic that will change the way you think about personal finance. Via video, Dave Ramsey teaches about how to save money, live on a budget, communicate about money, eliminate debt, find bargains, and experience the joy of giving.
