Biography:
I attended San Jose State University for my undergraduate degree in
Business Administration with an emphasis in Marketing. I have earned a
Masters degree in Education from National University.
I most enjoy
spending time with my wife and three daughters. We are big fans of the
beach. I have taken up photography in the past three years and also
enjoy backpacking, woodworking, surfing and any team sport you can think
of.
I was selected as Educator of the Year at Rogers Middle School in
2001 and received the St. Stephen Teaching Award here at Priory in
2006-2007 and in 2004, I coached Woodside Priory's 2004 CCS
Championship team. I started college as a Music major and actually
earned a music scholarship.
What excites me most about teaching is how
natural and right it feels for me. While many people may be frightened
away by a room of twenty seventh-graders, I am actually excited to be in
that situation every day I come to school.
My favorite quotes are:
"Education is the most powerful weapon which you can use to change the world." -Nelson Mandela
"Thousands of candles can be lighted from a single candle, and the life of the candle will not be shortened. Happiness never decreases by being shared." - Buddha
