While attending graduate school, he worked part time at Cellular World in the accounting department.

He has worked in a variety of industries include medical, food and beverage distribution, and is now the Senior HR Business Partner for Freese and Nichols, a civil engineering firm based in Fort Worth. His primary focus is to enhance the candidate and employee experience throughout the lifecycle of their employment.

In 2019 he was recognized by the Fort Worth Business Press in their Top 40 under 40 program.
