My Family

I have a wife, Tracie, two daughters, Heather and Lara. Heather wrote the song that is playing when she was 13.

My Work

I design industrial electronic instrumentation for Delta Controls Corporation; in Shreveport, La. I am a graduate of Louisiana Tech University with a B.S. in Electrical Engineering. I am registered with the state of Louisiana as a Professional Engineer.

Other Things I Like To Do

Music / Drama

I attend Airline Drive Church of Christ in Bossier City, La. where I serve as the song director.

I am part of One Voice quartet, four guys that meet once a week and sing into the wee hours of the night because we can't think of anything we'd rather do. We sing a wide variety of old time gospel, contemporary gospel, and barbershop for anyone who cares to listen to us.

I play flute and Baritone Saxophone in the Prevailing Winds, a community band in the Shreveport / Bossier City area.

I also enjoy acting with the drama group at church.


INTERESTING MUSICAL INSTRUMENTS

When no one else is listening, I play the saxophone, flute, and recorder. I also have a Casio DH-200 digital horn, a Casio DH-280 digital horn, a Yamaha WX-11 and WX-5 wind controller, a Yamaha VL70m synth, and an Alesis NanoSynth that I have a lot of fun with. I collect simple flutes and recorders.

By the way, I can fix broken Casio DH-100, DH-200, DH-500 , and DH-800 digital horns. If you have a broken one, click here

If you are into Yamaha MIDI wind controllers, check out this horn case

Computers

I like programming my computer to do strange engineering kinds of things . Visual Basic is my current programming language of choice. I use C on the microcontrollers I program at work. But I'll still whip out GW-Basic for a quickie program to fix a data file or plot a graph.
