I grew up in Batesburg-Leesville where our original office was located and graduated from Furman University with a BA in Accounting in 1991 and then started my insurance career. I have obtained my CPCU and CIC insurance designations and continue to put a high emphasis on furthering my education in this business. I served on the board of directors for the Independent Insurance Agents and Brokers Association of South Carolina and was the chairperson of the education committee. I currently serve on the continuing education committee for the Department of Insurance and as treasurer for the Professional Insurance Agents of South Carolina.
I live in Lexington with my wife Robin and have 3 adult children in Greenville, SC, Nashville, TN, and Washington DC.
