I graduated from Embry-Riddle University with a degree in Aerospace Engineering before being commissioned as an officer in the United States Air Force.  I have spent over 18 years in the military, first as a B-1B Lancer pilot and then as an MQ-9 Reaper instructor pilot.  

During my military career, I earned a Master of Military History degree from Norwich University and a Master of Divinity degree from Liberty University. I am also the author of three books and host of the podcast, Governed by God. 

My wife and I have been married for over sixteen years and are the parents of three children. We currently live in Bucks County, Pennsylvania, where I serve as a teacher at Hilltown Baptist Church.
