After High School, I
did some traveling trying to gain what I called at the time
" A True To Life Education." From 86 to 90 I literally
lived on the streets. My volunteer work in homeless shelters and churches occasionally
put a roof over my head, and food in my stomach. I traveled most of the
U.S. by jumping trains, and hitching rides with strangers. I met lots
of very interesting people.
In 1991 I
planted my feet in OKC, Where I reconnected with a friend from high school,
Tanya Meyer. Tanya graduated a year ahead of us. We married in 1996 and
have one child.
I hope The
Class of 86 is as happy and at ease with life and their families, as much as
I am with mine.

I received my
Undergraduate degree in History from Oklahoma City University in
1990. I received my MD from the University of Oklahoma in 1996 and
married Suzanne Alli of OKC two weeks later. We stayed in OKC for the next
three years so that I could complete a residency in Internal Medicine. In
June 1999, we moved to Birmingham, AL, where I continued my
Education and completed my fellowship in Hematology/Oncology
in 2002. One week later, my first born son Caden arrived and and then a week after
that we moved back to OKC. I am now in a partnership in my own practice
based out of OKC. In April 2004, my wife and I welcomed our second
son, Ryan.

I am married to Tami and have 3
kids Parker (boy-11), Presley (girl-7),
& Paytan (girl-6). After graduation I got a degree from OU in
Philosophy-Ethics and Religion. With such a marketable degree I managed
a tennis club and a number of restaurants. I went back to school and
got my law degree in 2000 and I am licensed in Oklahoma and New
Mexico. I worked for a bankruptcy trustee in Oklahoma City for a
while during
and after law school and then moved to El Paso, TX to take a job at a
small civil defense firm in Las Cruces, NM. About two and a half years
ago I was offered the opportunity to come to work for El Paso Electric
Company, a publically traded electric utility (NYSE-EE), as Assistant
General Counsel and then a year later the company added the
responsibilitiy of Director of Corporate Compliance. I do some travel
for work to places like Washington D.C., New York City, Boca Raton,
Bermuda, San Francisco and Phoenix. I am a deacon in my church, teach
8th Sunday School, and I am the director of a basketball and
cheerleading league there. I enjoy harassing all my Texas friends every
second Saturday in October and proudly fly a Sooner flag in front of my
house on game days.
UPDATE: I have recently moved back to Norman to take a position with
OG&E as Assistant Corporate Secretary and Compliance Officer.
My children attend Community Christian School. Parker (son-14) is
in 8th grade and plays percussion in the band. Presley
(daughter-10) is in 5th grade and is quite an artist. You can
look for one of her paintings at the upcoming
May Fair. My youngest, Paytan, (daughter-age 9) is in 3rd
grade and loves all animals, but she loves to ride horses.
I look forward to bumping into fellow alums around town.

Since
high school, I have been traveling the world in the U.S. Navy. I was
recently promoted so it looks like I will be around for another three
or four years more. Got married once and divorced, so I have been on my
own since then. I have been in Pensacola Florida since March of last
year, and if anybody has good weather please send it my way, two
hurricanes in less than nine months isn't a lot of fun. I am currently
finishing my BA in Naval Studies, it has only taken me eighteen years
to get it done, but it has all been paid for, so I don't owe a thing. I
am currently the Chief of Police at the Whiting Field Police
Department, and like with all careers, it has it's ups and downs, but I
love Police work and look forward to coming to work everyday, just wish
I could get back out onto the road more often and leave the admin stuff
behind, but things have to get done. I plan on being at the twenty year
and look forward to seeing you all, it is amazing that twenty years is
behind us. Take care everyone and drop me a line. |

Hi
everyone. After high school I went straight to OKCCC and earned an
Associate in Applied Science as a Physical Therapy Assistant. I met my
loving husband, Michael there. We have been married for 16 year as of
June 2nd. After college I worked at Presbyterian Hospital in OKC for 2
years. With our first child on the way I decided to go into home
health. I still work part time for Norman Physical Therapy Group. I
spend most of my time taking kids to sports. My daughter Lacy (14)
plays soccer for Norman Fury Red 91 and my son Forrest (11) does
gymnastics at Dynamo in N. OKC. My Husband Michael is the Director of
Environmental Affairs for Love's Country Stores and Travel Stops for
the U.S. We live in Noble and are very happy. God Bless

My roots have remained deep here
in Norman because my family is here. I moved away a few times after
college, to Texas, California, and Kansas, but always found my way back
home. As for my career, I am going on my sixth year working as a pseudo
pilot at the FAA in OKC. I decorate some to keep busy and also to
contribute to my passion, traveling! I look forward to visiting with
some of you I have often thought about and not seen.

Hosted my own talk show for
WDNG-AM after years of broadcast journalism studies. Eventually life
led me to the beautiful city of Nashville after living in Atlanta on
and off for ten years. If you haven't been here, you need to visit!!!!
It's beautiful and offers so much history! Long story short...too late!
I sell to businesses for Dell computers and also have my own business in web
design/graphic design and photo restoration as well. To those who knew
me then and read this now, the fact you're reading this means a lot to
me. I hope life has treated you greatly and know every one of you have
always had an important part to my life in an awesome way! Feel free to
write me at either email!
