    Prior to coming to Regents in the summer of 2014, Lanny was a senior pastor for over 20 years. He graduated from Mount Vernon Nazarene University in Ohio and was an adjunct professor there. He also taught 4th and 5th grade geography and science in a private Christian school and was a substitute teacher for many years. After 20 years in the pastoral ministry, he moved back to Texas to be closer to family. Lanny has two children, Nathan, an Austin PD canine officer, and Nikole, a social media services entrepreneur in Seattle, Washington. He has three grandchildren- Taylor Steven, a graduate of the University of Cincinnati, Emerson Nicole, and Colin Patrick. And last, but certainly not least, is the love of his life, Debra.

    Lanny loves the lake, and if he doesn't answer his cell, it's nothing personal- he is most likely out on the boat with Deb or building something in the back yard.
