Dr. Mounce was born on Halloween in rural Pontotoc County, Mississippi. Following graduation from Ole Miss, he taught mathematics, physical education, health, adult education, and continuing education topics. During his tenure in Mississippi public schools, he also coached multiple sports, drove school bus routes, and taught night classes for a local college. Besides campaigns in basketball, tennis, baseball, and soccer, his coaching career included a golf State Championship.

He moved to North Carolina in 2010, where he rapidly ascended to associate professor on the collegiate level.
