I was born August 12, 1969, in Westminster, California. I moved to Odessa in the 4th grade and graduated from Odessa High School in 1987. I majored in Biology at Odessa College, while working full-time in a local bank. I graduated from Parker College of Chiropractic in Dallas in 1994. I earned a bachelor’s in anatomy and a doctorate in chiropractic.

I practiced chiropractic in Temple, Texas in 1995 and Istanbul, Turkey in 1996. I began teaching at Odessa College in 1997. I love teaching A & P and my 10 year-old daughter Bronte, loves her dad teaching at OC.
