Interests:

  • My Wife Michelle Renee Odom! We were married April 5, 2008.
  • Brewing Beer - My friends and I started making our own beer.
  • UFC - I love watching MMA competitions in general but UFC is where it's at.
  • Amateur Astronomy - I own a telescope thats collecting dust at this moment. When I took an astronomy class at LSU I took a great deal of interest in it. As a result I've enjoyed looking towards the stars and learning about how the universe works.
  • Old Cars - I have a thing for 68-70 model vehicles particularly old Mustangs and Pontiacs. I've been rebuilding an old Mustang for years but its come and go being that I'm still so busy with my career. As of 2008 I have the suspension back under the car and it's back on wheels for the first time since 1998. Should be driving by 2020 at this rate.
  • Fitness - Lately I only exercise 2-3 times a week but when I get back into my groove its usually 5 days a week. I do alot of MMA training as a way to stay in shape. I earned my black belt in Tang Soo Do martial arts and participated in the Judo team at USL for 2 years. For a while in 2005 I took the time to teach martial arts at my instructors school.
  • Education - I like to learn new things about science, philosophy, the arts and the world in general. I read alot of biographies on famous people who seem worth emulating. Some of my favorites are the Marquis De Lafayette, Ben Franklin and Alexander Hamilton. I also enjoy trying to stay up on the latest in the computer world.
  • Poker - Like many other people out there I jumped on the band wagon of playing poker. I go up to the Argosy casino and play in alot of small games for fun.
  • LSU sports - You can't graduate from LSU without becoming a Tiger fan. I love to cheer for LSU's sport teams.
