Background
Hometown: Saluda, SC
About Me: I came to USC as a freshman in 2001 and never left! I teach UNIV 101 and UNIV 401 and volunteer with the local chapter of the USC Alumni Association. My wife and I live in the Rosewood neighborhood with our miniature dachshund, who is a very good friend. I love books (nonfiction), sports (Gamecocks), and music (I play guitar -- let me know if you'd like your advising appointment to be sung.)
Favorite Quote: Be yourself -- everyone else is taken.
Advice to Students: Any pizza is a personal pan if you believe in yourself.
