My early career was in business as an executive in a manufacturing company in West Virginia. After training for priesthood, I continued in industry and was a bi-vocational, part-time priest in the Episcopal Diocese of West Virginia, where I served several parishes. In 1980, I left industry and entered into full time parish ministry in West Virginia. In 1987, I returned to graduate school and pursued a Ph.D. in psychology at the University of Kentucky. While in graduate school, I taught part-time at the University of Kentucky and Eastern Kentucky University. After graduating in 1991, I joined The Evelyn Frye Center in Nashville, Tennessee as a therapist and later became a partner and Clinical Director of the practice. In 2002, I returned to full-time parish ministry and am currently Rector of holy Trinity Episcopal Church in Bartow, Florida. I continue with a part-time practice in psychology through the Episcopal Counseling Center in Orlando, Florida.

My spare time is devoted to travel, gardening, fishing, reading and writing interests.
