Drawing on his experience as a U.S. Marine and intelligence analyst, he brings unique perspective to the study of conflict, faith, and morality. He holds a B.A. in History from Southern Virginia University and an M.A. in Military History from Norwich University, and pursued postgraduate work in War Studies at King’s College London. He teaches history at American Public University and has published extensively on the intersection of Just War theory, military strategy, and the Book of Mormon.
