M.S. in Computer Science from the Air Force Institute of Technology

Ph.D. in Computer Science from the Ohio State University

I was born on December 4, 1961 in Harrisburg, Pennsylvania. In 1974, at age twelve, I moved to Littleton, Colorado where I attended Columbine High School. After graduation, I entered the University of Northern Colorado (UNC) as a 3 ½ year scholarship student in UNC’s AFROTC program. I completed the program as a distinguish graduate in 1983 and received my B.A. degree in Math that same year.
After college I served in the Air Force for 20 years. During that time, I finished M.S. and Ph.D. degrees in computer systems and computer science, respectively; supported our national war planning effort; and taught undergraduate- and graduate-level courses in computer science and simulation, and managed the computer systems at the Pentagon.
On December 14th, 1984, while on my first Air Force assignment, I married Victoria Dastoli of Dayton, Ohio. We now live near Xenia, OH with our children: Rebekah, age 20, Matthew, age 18, and Jonathan age 16. Both Rebekah (Sophomore, Elementary Education) and Matthew (Freshman, Mechanical Engineering) are students at Cedarville.
