Though a science major in college, he attended law school and, early in his career, became a trial lawyer and state prosecutor.He is currently a partner in the law firm of Stone & Hiles and has gone to trial on nearly fifty employment cases during which time he accumulated a store-house of knowledge on ethnic and cultural diversity in America.

This experience piqued his curiosity about America's legacy of diversity and led him to begin exploring the ethnic festivals celebrated around this great nation. Currently, in his office there are twelve different languages spoken by his employees.
