I was born and raised in West Frankfort and have lived here all my life.  I graduated from FCHS in 1984.  I attended Southwest Baptist University and John A. Logan College.  I married my wife, Rachele Hammond, in 1994.  We have 5 children, Brittany, Mariah, Dillion, Landen, and Hayden.
 
I consider it a great honor and passion to serve the students of our city and to help them realize just how much Jesus loves them and has a purpose for their lives.
