Family and Personal Life

Justin holds a special place in his heart for his career in law enforcement. It was actually his first night on duty as a Police Officer that he met Holly, a volunteer Medical First Responder, who was dispatched to the same scene.  Only a few months later, Hurricane Ike brought them closer together and the rest, as they say, is history.



Holly, Justin, and son, Eli, reside in League City. They have family in both League City and Dickinson. Faith and family remain cornerstones of their lives. In fact, three generations attend church together on Sundays.

Holly is a Physician Assistant at the University of Texas Medical Branch specializing in medical education and women’s health clinical research. Eli is a 6-year-old with a love of sports. He keeps his Mom and Dad running from event to event!  Justin’s hobbies include  wood-working, welding, and experimenting with new technology. He is a HAM Radio operator and enjoys building radio equipment.
