Quall attended Seattle Pacific University and earned a master's degree in Education Guidance and Counseling in 1974. He worked for thirty-eight years in education.

As a representative, he served as Chair of the Education Committee, and he has been a member of the Economic Development, Agriculture and Trade Committee.
