Biography and Education
I basically grew up in Seguin, TX where I attended middle school and high school. I am the oldest of four siblings, all brothers. During my time in high school I was a member of the marching, concert and jazz bands playing the trumpet. I also participated in drama and was a leader in the science club at the high school. I had always enjoyed studying science and had been interested in the medical field due to the experiences I had with my father, who was a veterinarian.I originally began my college education at Texas Lutheran University as Biology major to fulfill the requirements for pre-Med. My senior year I switched my major to Chemistry and spent my fifth year completing the upper division math and chemistry classes required to graduation.
