Faith, Values and Family.
There is nothing more important to me than my faith, values and family. My Christian faith and values serve as my compass in every facet of my life, especially as a husband and father. In 2003, I married the love-of-my-life, Jennifer. Jennifer is an Instructional Designer at Moore Norman Technology Center. Together we are happily raising 3 children, our son Benjamin who is 14 and our twin daughters, Karsyn and Kennedy who are 11. We are active parishioners of St. Thomas More Catholic Church in Norman. In my spare time, you will find me with family, running, cycling, or at an OU sporting event!
My Most Solemn Oath.
When I took the bench 13 years ago, I raised my right hand and swore to support and defend the Constitutions of the United States and the State of Oklahoma. I incorporate this solemn oath into every action I take as District Judge. I firmly believe that the judiciary is obligated to carefully interpret and steadfastly uphold the law and the Constitution. I practice this belief daily with much temperance and prudence.
Experience and Dedication
You Can Count On.
As the District Judge for the 21st Judicial District, I preside over all varieties of civil, family law, and criminal cases.
I served as Special Judge for Cleveland County for eight years.
I was a former Cleveland County Assistant District Attorney and prosecuted homicides, sex crimes, violent offenses, and drug trafficking cases.
