He received his Bachelor’s and Master’s degrees in public administration from the University of Maryland in College Park.

The board works to ensure minimum standards of competency, protect the public from misrepresentation of status of persons who hold themselves out to be ‘certified electrologists’ and to provide the public with safe care by the mandatory licensing for electrolysis’s. The board has five members, each serving a three-year term. The governor appoints three members. The senate president pro tempore and the speaker of the house each appoint one member.
