Co-Founder / Director
David has been involved in scientific investigation of the paranormal since 1999; a member of one of Middle Tennessee’s early research groups, Census of the Dead, before the trendy period after the reality TV boom that shortly followed. After moving to FL he joined Florida Ghost Team, which was one of the state’s most successful groups until it disbanded in 2011.
As a founding member of Nightside Paranormal, David intends to continue to learn more about this fascinating field but most importantly help families learn about and cope with what they might be experiencing. David believes that although science and evidence is key, proof or disproof of paranormal activity means nothing if he cannot find a way to help a family deal with what they are experiencing.
David is an art consultant and photographer by profession and enjoys, in his free time, theatre, travel, action figure collecting, salt water aquariums, and family.

Ever since I can remember I have been interested in the Paranormal. It started when I was a child and continued into my adulthood where I was more comfortable in exploring it further and sharing my experiences with friends and family. I have been in the medical field for 30 years now and have witnessed and experienced a lot of activity which really can’t be explained other than paranormal. I am looking forward to furthering my adventures and experiences and learning new things as I take on a new adventure with Nightside Paranormal.
My hobbies include photography of cemetery angels and traveling around looking for the perfect statue.

Alabama Team Manager
Joe has been interested in the paranormal ever since his first experiences when he was a kid. Joe joined the Army as a combat medic right after high school which afforded him the opportunity to investigate with other like minded individuals when he wasn’t deployed in support of Operation Enduring Freedom or Operation Iraqi ‘freedom. Joe really got into investigations when he was stationed near Savannah, Ga which is considered one of America’s most haunted cities. Joe was honorably discharged from the Army in dec of 2014 at which time he moved to Florida and started working with NPI-Florida until July 2015 at which time he moved to Auburn, AL to continue his education. Joe not only believes in finding proof of the paranormal but strives to provide solutions in people and families being able to live in harmony with spirits or to rid families of dark presences if necessary. In his off time Joe likes to Hunt, fish, ride motorcycles, and anything else he would describe that an “educated redneck” would like.
