Personal Interests
I am a proud father of three children, Hunter, Sierra, and Bella, and husband to my beautiful wife and best friend, Becky. And lets not forget our chocolate labradoodle, Georgia. My wife and I are high school sweethearts who have been together since April 10, 1993. We got married April 28, 2001 after we graduated from Western Kentucky University (her in 1998; Journalism and me in 2000; Geography) and moved to one of the best places on Earth, Athens, GA. I attended graduate school at the University of Georgia where I received my M.S. and Ph.D. degrees specializing in geography and atmospheric sciences. Also during graduate school, Becky and I decided to start our family. Hunter was born September 2, 2003, which was about my second week into the start of me entering the Ph.D. program. We also bought our first house that summer. On April 28, 2005, Sierra was born (note, our wedding anniversary). And since being completely poor in graduate school and trying to finish a Ph.D. wasn't challenging enough, we decided to have our third and final child, Bella, who was born November 1, 2007. I graduated with a Ph.D. on August 2, 2008 and moved back to Bowling Green, KY on August 3, 2008 in pursuit of my new career as a professor of meteorology and climatology in the Meteorology Program at Western Kentucky University. It was quite strange ending up back in a place where we thought we would never live again, but we are firm believers that everything happens the way it is suppose to and to let life happen. We are especially happy to be closer to both of our families, who live about 0.25 mi from each other in Evansville, IN., and to be back in a location with a distinct four-season climate. Overall, we are extremely family-oriented and we love to spend time with each other do anything and everything we can come up with (e.g., traveling, concerts, movies, camping, Disney World, watching storms...you name it).
