Robert graduated from Samford University with a Bachelor of Arts in Religion. When he and his wife moved to Mississippi, Robert started working for a local business man in his accounting department. Within the first few months, Robert was asked to design a custom, complex accounting system from scratch. It was designed to perform certain internal calculations and meet certain specifications of the way his business had been running for over 35 years. After a few months of design, the system was implemented and matched the old system within a .001% variance. Over the course of 22 years, Robert adapted the system to meet the growing needs of the business as the business more than doubled in size.
After designing the system, and while working full time, Robert decided to go back to college. He attended Mississippi College and received a Certificate of Accounting. Since then, Robert has assisted in the design, implementation, and updating of accounting systems and functions for retail stores, small and large businesses, and non-profit organizations. He has also managed the bookkeeping, accounting, and financial reporting for many of those same businesses.
Now, Robert lives in Alabama, with his wife and three dogs, where he works with a large public utility in their corporate accounting department assisting on various accounting projects.
