Favorite Memory From MSU
I have several cherished memories from my time at MSU, as Morehead is my home, being born and raised off Exit 137.
One of my favorite experiences was working at Morehead State Public Radio. As a shy 17-year-old high school student, speaking on public radio and delivering sports and newscasts was incredibly intimidating. Interviewing people I had never met forced me out of my comfort zone, which is where my journey truly began.
My time at MSPR was transformative, thanks to the role models who helped forge and mold me into the person I am today.
Extracurricular Activities While a Student at MSU
Sigma Alpha Epsilon Fraternity, Interfraternity Council, Morehead State Public Radio and SOAR Orientation Leader
My Hobbies & Interests
I enjoy spending time with my family and friends, watching the horses run at Keeneland and learning about the bourbon industry and its impact on Kentucky. I also love playing golf, wading the creeks of Eastern Kentucky to fish for smallmouth bass, or whatever bites.
Additionally, I enjoy problem-solving technology issues for my family and friends, as I am know as the tech guy. Lastly, I love traveling with my wife.
Expertise That I Have Acquired in My Life & Career That I Bring to My Term of Service on the MSU Alumni Board
As a proud first-generation college graduate from MSU, my life has been shaped by a commitment to learning, growth and relationship-building. My passion for discovering the rich culture and history of Kentucky, coupled with my admiration for social outings and networking events equips me with a unique ability to connect with people from all walks of life.
I am excited to bring this expertise to the University Alumni Board, where I will work to foster relationships, celebrate out shared heritage and strengthen our alumni community, and not just across the Commonwealth of Kentucky but any area that is habitable by Eagles. I am eager to contribute to the MSU alumni Board of Directors.
