I obtained my B.S.E from Syracuse University, M.S.E from University of Central Arkansas and my PH. D from Virginia Tech. I served both Radford University and Virginia Tech as an Adjunct Instructor where I authored and co-authored research and various other publications.

I currently reside in San Diego, California.
