I have been a pharmacist since 1974. I have recently retired. I am an ordained deacon and a licensed Baptist minister. I preach at my home church some and at a lot of the small churches in the area when they need me.

I am a member of the Oklahoma Knife Group Association. I have had an interest in knives since I was a kid. I started making knives a few years back. I went to Batson's in 2010 and had a visit with Mr. B. R. Hughes. He made an impression on me. I went back to Batson's in 2013 and decided to join ABS.
