I was educated within the Catholic & Jesuit School System located in Cleveland, Ohio and received a Bachelor’s Degree in Psychology from Cleveland State University in 1988. I then served my country for six (6) years in the Army National Guard of Ohio and was Honorably Discharged in 1989 as a Sergeant (E-5). In March of 1991, I was initiated into Prince Hall Freemasonry and was raised as a Master Mason in 1995. I am a third (3rd)-generation Freemason. Simultaneously, in 1995, I received a Master’s Degree in Biblical Counseling from Freelandia Bible College & Seminary located in the State of Missouri. In 1999, I went on to earn a Juris Doctorate Degree (JD) in Law from Newport University (Newport Beach, California), although I never sat for the California Bar Exam. I have over twenty (20) years of public, law-enforcement experience within the State of Ohio as both a policeman and Deputy Sheriff. In June, 2013, I went back to school to earn an LL.M. (Master of Laws) Degree from Thomas Jefferson School of Law in San Diego, California. Currently, I am employed at the top-rated, educational institution known as Case Western Reserve University, in Cleveland, Ohio. Also I just recently completed my Master’s of Business Administration (MBA) degree. I have been married to my wife, Joanne, for seventeen (17) years and we have a fourteen (14) year old son named, Ryan. My final conquest is to earn a Doctorate degree in Ministry if almighty God wills it to be so. I am currently enrolled in this program.
Also, on May of 2014, in the great City of Cincinnati, Ohio, I was elevated and received Freemasonry’s highest honor and also its greatest level of responsibility, the 33rd Degree.
