From 1996 to 2022, I taught for and was administrator of a Catholic high school in Augusta, GA. I retired in June 2022 and now spend my days reading and relaxing. I continue to serve as a permanent deacon in the Catholic Diocese of Savannah, GA, ordained in May 2012. From July 2015 to June 2024, I served as the Director of the Office of the Permanent Diaconate for the Diocese of Savannah, GA. I now keep busy serving as a deacon at the Catholic Chapel at Ft. Eisenhower, GA (formerly Fort Gordon), and providing spiritual direction, so I have plenty to keep me busy during my retirement.
