I am a licensed clergyman under Bishop Jack Iker of the Episcopal Diocese of Fort Worth (Southern Cone). I grew up on the West side of Fort Worth, Texas, was baptized and confirmed at Trinity Episcopal Church, and graduated from R. L. Paschal High School in 1974. I graduated from Tarleton State University in 1983, and Nashotah House Theological Seminary in 1992. I was ordained to the priesthood on June 29, 1992, the feast of St. Peter and St. Paul.
