He has a Bachelors degreee in Aerospace Engineering from the University of Missouri-Rolla, a Masters in Computer Science from the University of West Florida, and is persuing a Masters in Biology from the Univeristy of Missouri St. Louis. He spent 7 years in the USAF, exiting as a Captain, and spent three semesters teaching at the Virginia Military Institute.

He seeks to apply odd techniques and methods to assure fishing success and attacks a fishing problem like an engineering design. He also created and runs the website www.combat-fishing.com.
