BEFORE LAW SCHOOL …

I attended the University of South Carolina, earning a B.A. in criminal justice, and was a linebacker for the Gamecocks. After narrowly missing out on an NFL career, I worked in the South Carolina Attorney General’s office with one of the best gang prosecutors, T. DeWayne Pearson, now a nAssistant US Attorney. I loved working in my department and for the current SC Attorney General, Allen Wilson. After being disappointed a second time in the NFL combine in 2010, I devoted my time to figuring out my non-sport career. The entire office encouraged me to apply to law school, so I did.

WHY WVU LAW?

I wanted a new experience in a totally different region of the country. The staff treated all my questions via phone and email with the utmost courtesy, thoroughness, friendliness, and excitement. Twelve and a half hours away and without prior visitation, I felt confident making the decision to attendWVU Law.

LAW INTERESTS

Coal, oil and gas, immigration and litigation law.

IN 10 YEARS …

I hope to be making a significant spiritual and social difference in the life of someone as often as possible.

OUTSIDE OF LAW SCHOOL …

I enjoy spending time with my wife, playing with our 11 wek old, and playing guitar, computer and video games.
