He is a graduate of South Florida Community College (1970), and the University of Central Florida (1972). After 7 years in environmental Health with the Highlands County Health Department and 5 years as Highlands County EMS Coordinator, he resigned in 1985 to help his wife's family, Saxon Groves, Inc. built and manage a new RV and Mobile Home community, Reflections on Silver Lake.
