He studied Surveying and Mapping Sciences at the Southern Polytechnic College of Engineering and Engineering Technology at Kennesaw State University, and was employed as a land surveyor for over 20 years. He was an expert navigator, and could find his way through the woods with his quad sheet and compass, no GPS needed.
He was a very talented drummer, and loved music in all forms and genres. Todd was an independent spirit with a strong heart for others. He had a fascination with space and the universe beyond, and will be remembered with love and fond memories by his dear friends and family.
