I was born and raised in Homewood and graduated from HHS in 2001. I attended the University of South Alabama where I received a bachelor's degree in history and graduate school at UAB where I received a master's degree in secondary education. I'm entering my 13th year at The Exceptional Foundation and absolutely love my job. My wife, Dr. Erica Lee, is a research professor at the University of Alabama and an adjunct professor at UAB. We have a three month old son named Indiana and a five year old crazy dog named Burt.
