After he finished high school, he was awarded a full scholarship to Cal Tech to study Electrical Engineering; however, he wouldn't go due his favorite girl "Anna", was diagnosed with cancer. He then decided to stay close to home and attend ITT Technical Institute where he earned his Electrical Engineering and Science Degree in 1986.
