Education

I completed both my undergraduate and graduate work at Palm Beach Atlantic University. I received a bachelor's degree in marketing and a master's degree in leadership. I also played basketball at the University and was inducted into the Sailfish Sports Hall of Fame in 2005.

Experience

After starting my own marketing business and coaching high school sports after college, I then spent 20 years as an administrator at a private school in Palm Beach County. During that time, our enrollment grew significantly. I also was honored to be a part of the school's first and only six state championship teams. Overall, it was a rewarding experience in so many ways and definitely helped prepare me for my time here at Fusion Academy.

Fun Facts and Hobbies

  • My wife and I love sitting and watching our four kids play sports! Our oldest is a college basketball player now.
  • I have traveled internationally to Costa Rica, Iceland, China, Hong Kong and the Caribbean.
  • I once sat on a plane next to Muhammed Ali.
