He was a 1966 graduate of Norman High School and upon graduation he attended Eaton Barber School where he graduated as a master barber. He later joined the Navy as a master barber on the aircraft carrier the USS Independence during the Vietnam Era. After being discharged from the Navy he started work at a barbershop in Hot Springs and then Norman. In addition to that he also cut billets as a side business. In 1972 he started Stanley Green Logging with the support of his father and was fortunate enough to have his uncles work with him.
