By way of background, I was raised in Greenville not far from the main Greenville Tech campus, graduating from Greenville High School and the University of South Carolina. Along the way I attended Furman University for a few years while I was “finding myself”. My dad was Chairman of the History Department at Furman, so I was raised in a family that was deeply involved in education. My younger brother is a retired Army officer. He lives in Kentucky near Fort Knox. My older sister was a nurse for many years before retiring. My mom was a substitute teacher in elementary schools for years. So it is easy to understand why I enjoy teaching.<\/p>\n

My wife, Sharon, and I live in Taylors. We have one son, Michael, who lives in Georgia.<\/p>\n

In addition to being a member of the faculty at Greenville Tech, I was appointed Department Head for the Computer Programming Department at Greenville Tech in November 2010. In January 2013 I was appointed the Department Head for the Computer Technology Department after it was decided to merge the Computer Programming and Network Systems Administration Departments into one department. In May 2015 I moved to a new position as Academic Program Director for the Computer Technology Department. On August 9, 2019 I stepped down as Academic Program Director to spend more time teaching and developing courses for the department. Our department currently has over 500 active students participating in over 40 courses.<\/p>\n

I also operate\u00a0PM-Systems<\/a><\/strong>, a computer consulting firm here in Greenville. In recent history we have not had the time to do much consulting since joining the faculty at Greenville Technical College, but we still work for several select clients on a time available basis.<\/p>\n
