He graduated from Jennings County High School in 1986 and immediately entered the United States Marine Corps. In the Marine Corps Brad served as an engineer in the electrical supply and distribution areas. After the Marine Corps Brad joined the US Army and served as a medic. After the military service, Brad began to work as an industrial electrician. Brad met Angie in 1993, and they have been happily married ever since. It wouldn’t be until the summer of 1998 that Brad would even hear of a Seventh-day Adventist. Brad went to study for the ministry at Southern Adventist University and graduated with a BA in Theology December 2002. A little known fact about Brad is his inventiveness that has led to a patent and the creation of his own label of hot sauce. Brad’s hobbies are weight training, golf, cooking, and most anything geeky.
