I was born in Ardmore, Oklahoma in 1992 and have continued to make Southern Oklahoma my home. I married my high school sweetheart in 2013, and together we have 4 kiddos. I can truly say that my marriage and my kids are the greatest accomplishment I have achieved in my life.

Prior to Fuqua, I earned a Bachelor of Science in biology from East Central University in Ada, OK and a Master of Business Administration from the John Massey School of Business at Southeastern Oklahoma State University in Durant, OK. It was during my first master’s program that I developed my love for analytics which propelled me to make the decision to pursue a specialized graduate business degree.

I have spent my entire professional career in the banking industry having begun in general management and most recently, as a credit analyst at BancFirst in Ardmore, OK. In this role, I have the opportunity to do financial statement analyses and provide 360-degree financial pictures to our commercial lending team on prospective clients.

In my spare time, I enjoy spending time with my wife and kids as well as teaching college courses at a couple of colleges in the Southern Oklahoma area. I am also fortunate to serve on three non-profit boards and the allocation committee for another non-profit in my area.
