Charles attended college at Northeast MS Community College and MS State University, majoring in Engineering and Industrial Engineering Technology. He has since gained heavy management experience in manufacturing, transportation, sales, and construction. He joined GCB over 11 years ago and has worked in estimating, sales, project management, and job supervision. In 2005, Charles and his wife Dawn agreed to move to the MS Gulf Coast area to manage business in progress and open a branch office for the company. Hurricane Katrina slightly disrupted plans, but also reinforced the decision to make the move. They are curently living in Pascagoula in a recreational vehicle until permanent housing becomes posssible. They have transferred their church membership from Calvary Baptist of Corinth to First Baptist of Pascagoula, where they enjoy attending Sunday School, worship services, Bible Study, and Prayer meetings. They also have joined the Choir and are participating voluntarily in helping with the repair of church member's homes damaged by hurricane Katrina. Charles has also received training for the "Building God's Way" program which focuses on church and Christian school design and construction.
