Vicksburg

I grew up in Stockbridge, Georgia and moved to Vicksburg to open Chick-fil-A Vicksburg in April 2013. I first started with Chick-fil-A at the Stockbridge Chick-fil-A Dwarf House as a Team Member, breading chicken, in 1997. A graduate of the University of Georgia with a Bachelor of Business Administration Degree in Management in 2004, I also participated in the Army ROTC program and the simultaneous membership program through the Georgia Army National Guard. I commissioned as an Armor Officer through the University of Georgia ROTC Bulldog Battalion in 2004. I was promoted to the rank of Major (MAJ) in August 2017, am currently a member of the Mississippi Army National Guard and am a combat veteran of both Iraq and Afghanistan. It has been a pleasure to serve in the community in various ways including serving on the Board of Directors for the Vicksburg Warren Economic Development Foundation, Vicksburg Warren County Chamber of Commerce, Vicksburg Convention and Visitors Bureau and the Kings Empowerment Center. Additionally, I have served as the Scout Committee Chairperson for Cub Scout Pack 221. I have been married to Bridget since February 2005. We have 3 children, sons Noah and Brady, and daughter, Lana. My family and I attend both Pinelake Church in Clinton, MS and Crossway Church in Vicksburg, MS.
