He graduated from Texas A & M University with a Bachelor’s degree in Chemistry, and a few years later, another Bachelor’s degree in Physics.

He began teaching at Gordon College in Barnesville, Georgia, in 1994 and has taught chemistry, physics, astronomy, and physical science there ever since. He has published over 100 scientific papers in many different journals and has given many talks and workshops to community organizations.
