My father was in the Air Force and, while growing up, my family and I lived, literally, all over the world.

After attending school in Austin and completing my education in England, I moved to Dallas. I've been practicing law in Dallas since 1988.

In 1994 I "sweet-talked" my wife Tammy into marrying me. We are blessed with a son, Jake, who is six years old now.

In my spare time I enjoy flying an old open cockpit biplane and traveling.
