Chas was drawn to West Point by the opportunity to play college Football and to serve in the military like his grandfathers.
Chas did well at West Point and with the Football team, but faced some difficult decisions when he compared his college experience to that of his highschool peers and when injuries threatened his ability to play on the team.
Chas was able to play Football throughout college and to graduate, but he would face new challenges shortly after.
9/11 and a horrible traffic accident involving his parents would alter the trajectory of his life.
Chas would deploy to Iraq three times with 3rd Brigade, 3rd Infantry Division and served as a congressional fellow before transitioning from Active Duty service to the Reserves.
Chas would inherit his family’s business and stay invested in Georgia at the community, state, and federal level the last 20 years. Chas was recently elected to the Georgia House of Representatives.
This is his story.
