The 2020-2021 school marks my 14th year as a teacher. Redirecting my career from engineering to education was life changing for me because it provides me a greater opportunity to impact the lives of others in a positive way. I've learned many valuable lessons from other teachers, as well as the students on what it takes to be effective as an educator. Not only do I get to go to work and teach others, but I also get to learn from others. Education is neverending.

I have been married to my high school sweetheart (Carrie) for 17 years. Our son (Jaxson) is 11 years old and our daughter (Carleigh) is 8 years old. We also have miniature dachshund (Holly) who is our 2 year old baby. I enjoy sports, exercising, and the simple moments I spend time with my wonderful family. Teaching is a rewarding platform for me to have a positive influence on the lives of young people. I credit many of my former teachers for helping mold me into the person I am today and now I have the opportunity to pass something along to someone else. I am also the sponsor of the Student Government Association (SGA). Marbury High School is a great place to be and I'm proud to be a bulldog!
