Dr. Brown is a United States Army Veteran. He enlisted in 1985 as a Private First Class, completed BNOC and PLDC, and was promoted to Staff Sergeant before attending Officer Candidate School.

Dr. Brown is an ordained minister through Word of Life Ministries in conjunction with Faith Fellowship Church.
