Key to Success: My wife—Erica King. My work is demanding, it is a blessing to have a wife who consistently sacrifices to ensure nothing falls through the cracks at our home. I could not do what I do without her.

Guilty Pleasure: Avidly following the Mississippi State Bulldogs and the Alabama State Hornets.

Childhood Aspiration: A college band director. In fact, my undergraduate degree is in Music.

Best Advice: Our firm’s Managing Partner, Tom Methvin, said to me something that our founder—Jere Beasley—said to him: “If you want to be successful, keep your priorities in order: Keep God first, your family second and this firm third—and everything else will take care of itself.”

Biggest Influence Personally & Professionally: I was blessed with two phenomenal parents who taught me the value of good character, hard work and careful planning. They are still my greatest influence and one of my chief motivations.
