Being a first-generation college student, growing up in a single parent household, living in government housing projects, and watching many around him work very hard for very little inspired him to strive for more.

At California State University in Fullerton, California, he earned a bachelor's in psychology and a master's degree in counseling.He returned to Alabama after completing his master's degree and attended the University of Alabama where he earned two additional master degrees in psychology and human development.
