David R. Harrison

I was born in 1951 in Kinston, NC, raised in Goldsboro, NC.  I went directly into the U.S. Army after graduating from Southern Wayne High School.  I spent 8 years in the U.S. Army, mostly in W. Germany.  While stationed at Ft. Huachuca, Arizona, I accepted Jesus Christ as my Lord and Savior on July 6th, 1978.  I returned to civilian life and settled in Charlotte, NC in 1978.

I serviced dedicated word processing systems for several years for several companies.  From 1985 to 1990, I worked for the PTL Television Network as a computer programmer.  I worked for Celanese Acetate in Charlotte, NC and Rock Hill, SC through several contract companies from 1994 until 2005 in Information Technology doing helpdesk support in the beginning and later as a Systems Engineer installing and maintaining their local area network and file servers.  I currently am employed by Hewlett Packard with full-time on-site responsibilities at the Ticona Plant in Shelby, NC.

My wife Sandra and I have been married for 36 years.  Sandra and I were blessed in 1990 with the birth of our only child, Matthew.  Matthew is now 17 years old and is a junior in high school attending Phillip O. Berry Academy of Technology in Charlotte.
