I am an Indiana boy transplanted to the heart of Texas, and have worked in national defense, as an educator and played semi-professional baseball. Currently, I am a Vice President at a $14 billion company. A graduate of Purdue University in Lafayette, Ind., where I received a bachelor’s degree in industrial supervision, and have also earned a master’s degree in marketing from Dallas Baptist University, where I am an adjunct professor. I currently live in Flower Mound, Texas, with my wife and daughter. CrossRoads was my debut novel.
