I was born in Port Arthur, Texas and raised in the Golden Triangle of Texas.  I completed my B.S. degree from Auburn University after only 2 1/2 years of study.  I began working as a police officer at 21 years old.  I was a college professor with two masters degrees at age 26.  By age 30, I was finishing law school.  I have since completed a third masters degree and defended over 2000 people who have been accused of crimes.  My experience as a defense lawyer includes over 100 jury trials.

  Outside of my law practice, I am actively involved in fitness.  I have practiced Gracie Jiu Jitsu for 13 years.  I am very competitive and I fight for my clients in court the way I fight on the jiu jitsu mat.  I use my knowledge, creativity, and experience to get the best results for my clients.
